Detailed Summary
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.
