Learning Early Infant Feeding Cues

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn more about responsive infant feeding (recognizing baby's signs of hunger and fullness) in mothers and infant enrolled in government-funded maternal-child home visiting programs. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What are the contributors and barriers to use of responsive infant feeding? * How can we refine an intervention focused on responsive infant feeding (the Learning Early Infant Feeding Cues intervention) so that mothers will like it and learn skills to help their baby be healthy. * Will the refined intervention improve use of responsive feeding and be feasible and acceptable to mothers and home visiting programs? Participants will be asked to: * Participate in focus groups to talk about their experiences feeding their baby. * Participate in a study to learn about responsive feeding and how to use it with their baby. This study will start when mothers are in their final month of pregnancy and finish when their baby is 6 months old. Participation will include: * Having someone come to the family home during a time when the baby is eating (either from the breast or the bottle). The mother will receive information on the baby's signs from an experienced coach. * Agreeing to be video recording during the session when the baby is eating. * Completing surveys online.

Evaluating Care Integration Between Pediatric Primary Care Providers and WIC Nutritionists

This study looks at whether using secure digital systems to share information between pediatric health care providers (during regular well-child visits) and social care providers (during regular visits with WIC nutritionists) can help mothers receive consistent guidance on responsive parenting to support healthy child growth and development. Responsive parenting means learning how to respond to a baby's needs in ways that support healthy eating, sleep, activity, and emotion regulation habits. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Does using secure digital systems to share information between pediatric health care providers and social care providers help mothers receive consistent guidance on responsive parenting to support healthy growth from birth to 24 months? 2. Does using secure digital systems to share information between pediatric health care providers and social care providers help mothers receive consistent guidance on responsive parenting, improve responsive parenting practices and child diet quality? The investigators will compare the group that receives secure digital systems for sharing information on responsive parenting to a group that receives standard care (does not receive this) to see if secure digital systems for sharing information on responsive parenting work to support healthy child growth and development. The goal is to see if this approach can improve early health behaviors and reduce health disparities for families in rural, low-income communities.

A Novel Obesity Prevention Program for High-Risk Infants in Primary Care

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a responsive parenting obesity prevention program with infants and caregivers of color (e.g., non-White; Hispanic/Latinx) and/or who are economically marginalized (i.e., publicly insured), delivered via Integrated Behavioral Health (IBH) in pediatric primary care. The main questions it aims to answer are: * 1\) Is the obesity prevention intervention delivered via IBH in pediatric primary care feasible and acceptable to families of color and/or families who are economically marginalized? * 2\) Will it prevent rapid weight gain during infancy? Participants will complete baseline (newborn), post-treatment (9 months), and follow-up assessments (12 months). Participants assigned to treatment will receive 4 prevention sessions as part of their typical well-child visit in pediatric primary care. Researchers hypothesize that infants in the obesity prevention intervention will have stable weight gain compared to infants in the control group (treatment as usual) will experience more rapid weight gain.

Effects of Monitoring Blood Pressure During Pregnancy

In this study, at least 400 women with high-risk of pregnancy hypertension will use a wearable device to monitor the blood pressure during gestational age from 12 weeks to 28weeks. The observed outcomes including maternal and offspring. Participants were from three hospital including Shanghai Xinhua Hospital, Jiaxing Maternal and Child Health Hospital and Peking University Third Hospital. Pregnant women were randomly divided into control group (routine delivery examination group) and intervention group (routine delivery examination group + use of wearable blood pressure monitoring device group), 200 cases each.
