An observational study using Poisson regression was carried out to investigate the relationship between ethnicity and infant feeding practices and linear regression was used to investigate the relationship between feeding practices and BMI at 3 years of age in a subsample of 1327 infants in Bradford. It was found that compared with White British mothers, mothers of Other ethnicities were less likely to replace breast milk with formula milk before introducing solid foods (adjusted relative risk (RR) \u2013 Pakistani: 0\u00b776 (95\u00a0% CI 0\u00b764, 0\u00b791), Other South Asian: 0\u00b758 (95\u00a0% CI 0\u00b739, 0\u00b786), and Other ethnicities: 0\u00b750 (95\u00a0% CI 0\u00b734, 0\u00b773)). Pakistani and Other South Asian mothers were less likely to introduce solid foods early (\u00a0&lt;\u00a017 weeks) (adjusted RR \u2013 Pakistani: 0\u00b792 (95\u00a0% CI 0\u00b787, 0\u00b796) and Other South Asian: 0\u00b787 (95\u00a0% CI 0\u00b781, 0\u00b793)). Other South Asian mothers and mothers of Other ethnicities were more likely to continue breast-feeding after introducing solid foods (adjusted RR \u2013 1\u00b772 (95\u00a0% CI 1\u00b729, 2\u00b729) and 2\u00b712 (95\u00a0% CI 1\u00b760, 2\u00b781), respectively). Pakistani and Other South Asian infants were more likely to be fed sweetened foods (adjusted RR \u2013 1\u00b718 (95\u00a0% CI 1\u00b713, 1\u00b723) and 1\u00b719 (95\u00a0% CI 1\u00b710, 1\u00b728), respectively) and Pakistani infants were more likely to consume sweetened drinks (adjusted RR 1\u00b772 (95\u00a0% CI 1\u00b715, 2\u00b757)). No association between infant feeding practices and BMI at 3 years was observed. Although ethnic differences in infant feeding practices were found, there was no association with BMI at 3 years of age. Interventions targeting infant feeding practices need to consider ethnicity to identify which populations are failing to follow recommendations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0007114514000099","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,11]],"date-time":"2014-02-11T04:45:39Z","timestamp":1392093939000},"page":"1891-1897","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Ethnic differences in infant feeding practices and their relationship with BMI at 3 years of age \u2013 results from the Born in Bradford birth cohort study"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"111","author":[{"given":"Gillian","family":"Santorelli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lesley","family":"Fairley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emily S.","family":"Petherick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Baltica","family":"Cabieses","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pinki","family":"Sahota","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/fn.84.1.F6"},{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref25","volume-title":"Stata Statistical Software: Release 12","year":"2011"},{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref22","volume-title":"Ethnic Group Statistics: A Guide for the Collection and Classification of Ethnicity Data","year":"2003"},{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/fn.88.4.F296"},{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref1","unstructured":"World Health Organization (2013) Complementary feeding. http:\/\/www.who.int\/nutrition\/topics\/complementary_feeding\/en\/ (accessed accessed 29 July 2013)."},{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref7","volume-title":"National Child Measurement Programme: England, 2011\/12 School Year","year":"2012"},{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref17","first-page":"s1","article-title":"Influences on the development of children's eating behaviours: from infancy to adolescence","volume":"68","author":"Birch","year":"2007","journal-title":"Can J Diet Pract Res"},{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref2","volume-title":"Weaning: Starting Solid Foods","year":"2008"},{"key":"S0007114514000099_ref21","volume-title":"WHO Child Growth Standards.
