“…In nine studies, medical professionals were discussed in a positive light due to their experience and knowledge and parents recognised that their decision on when to start complementary feeding and what foods to feed was based on their advice (26,28,29,38,40,41,47,48,53,55,67,70) .

Objective Worldwide data suggest a clash between parental complementary feeding practices and recommendations. Understanding the circumstances under which parents form their feeding practices is a crucial step to improve such practices. This paper aimed to systematically review the existing qualitative literature and synthesise the factors that parents take into consideration in relation to complementary feeding. Design A systematic review was undertaken. Four electronic databases were searched for qualitative studies published after 2001 exploring parental experiences during complementary feeding. A framework that included authors’ outcomes of interest was used to extract and synthesise study findings. The Standards for Reporting Qualitative Research were used to critically assess the included studies. Setting Upper-middle- and high-income countries. Participants Parents with a child below the age of 3 years. Results A total of 47 studies met the eligibility criteria and were included in this systematic review. The themes were organised into three main categories: 1) factors related to introduction of complementary foods; 2) factors related to the type of complementary foods; and 3) factors related to both timing and type. The selected literature highlights: prevalent baby cues that prompt parents to introduce solid foods; parents’ views on the recommended timing of complementary feeding; factors that drive the choice of complementary foods; and perceived value in advice received from health professionals and grandmothers. Conclusions This systematic review indicates factors that can be barriers to complying with the complementary feeding guidelines and therefore, its findings are pertinent to improving parental feeding practices through intervention studies and through infant feeding education in a primary care setting.

Background: Human milk has many proven benefits but breastfeeding rates are far below the desired optimal level. Social media plays an important role in accessing information and advice on health-related issues. There are several studies investigating how the social media has an impact on the community about health-related issues and decisions. We aimed to reveal how much Instagram has touched on breastfeeding and related contents about infant feeding. Material and Method: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study. We surveyed on Turkish Instagram accounts which only share about children health and diseases between June 2018 and January 2019. We searched the hashtags about child health and infant feeding and we enrolled the accounts that have more than 1000 followers. The obtained data were analyzed by SPSS 16.0 for Windows. The significancy level was accepted as p
