The purpose of this social media group randomized trial (GRT) is to test the feasibility of
our Baby Dayr for Teen Moms intervention to increase maternal responsiveness to infant cues
and implement healthy feeding practices through development of a healthy feeding style.
Aim 1: Evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the Baby Dayr intervention administered
to the target population as it relates to their acceptance and satisfaction with the content,
format, delivery, and use of social media.
Aim 2: Explore efficacy of the Baby Dayr intervention administered to adolescent mothers of
infants 4 months of age or less as assessed by maternal responsiveness, feeding style, and
feeding practices evaluated at the completion of the intervention using self-report methods.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Change in Infant Growth | Recumbent infant length (inches) and weight (pounds/ounces) measured at three separate time points. While recumbent infant length was collected in inches and weight collected in pounds/ounces, these measures were converted into z-score measurements for the outcome measurement of change in infant growth. Standardized weight scores are measures of relative weight adjusted for child age and sex. The z-score indicates the number of standard deviations away from a reference population in the same age range and with the same sex. A z-score of 0 is equal to the mean. Negative numbers indicated weight values lower than the mean and the positive numbers indicate weight values higher than the mean. | Baby is less than 2 months; baby is 3 months; baby is 6 months |
