In breastfed infants, human milk provides the primary source of iodine to meet demands during this vulnerable period of growth and development. Iodine is a key micronutrient that plays an essential role in hormone synthesis. Despite the importance of iodine, there is limited understanding of the maternal factors that influence milk iodine content and how milk iodine intake during infancy is related to postnatal growth. We examined breast milk samples from near 2 weeks and 2 months post-partum in a mother-infant dyad cohort of mothers with pre-pregnancy weight status defined by body mass index (BMI). Normal (NW, BMI < 25.0 kg/m2) is compared to overweight/obesity (OW/OB, BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m2). The milk iodine concentration was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. We evaluated the associations between iodine content at 2 weeks and infant anthropometrics over the first year of life using multivariable linear mixed modeling. Iodine concentrations generally decreased from 2 weeks to 2 months. We observed no significant difference in iodine based on maternal weight. A higher iodine concentration at 2 weeks was associated with a larger increase in infant weight-for-age and weight-for-length Z-score change per month from 2 weeks to 1 year. This pilot study shows that early iodine intake may influence infant growth trajectory independent of maternal pre-pregnancy weight status.

Background: Underweight is a public health problem caused by many factors. The prevalence of underweight in East Java in 2016 was 17.3%, wich was higher than the program’s targetted (12.9%). Breast milk is the best food to support the growth and development of the baby. Coverage of Exclusive Breast Milk in East Java in 2015 decreased (68.8%), compared to 2014 (72.89%). Early supplementary feeding in infants under 6 months may affect nutritional status. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship of Exclusive Breast milk with the incidence of underweight in infants aged 0-23 months in East Java Province in 2016. Method: This study is a secondary data analysis of Nutrition Status Monitoring in East Java Province. The study population was all babies in East Java. Total sample is 4738. The data were analyzed using Chi-square test and Logistic Regression, with 95% CI (α = 0.05). Results: The results showed there was a significant relationship between exclusive breastfeeding only from birth until before the last 24 hours in infants aged 0-23 months with the incidence of underweight, with (p=0.000010;OR=1.654;95%CI=1.319–2.052), there was a significant  relationship of first to provide a food other than breast milk in infants aged 0-23 months  with the occurrence of underweight, (p = 0.000;OR=0.272; 95%CI=0.217–0.341).Conclusion: In conclusion, breastfeeding only in infants from birth until before the last 24 hours and first provide food other than breast milk in infants aged 0-23 months associated with underweight. Because breast milk is sufficient nutritional needs of infants aged 0-6 months.ABSTRAK Latar Belakang: Masalah gizi kurang merupakan masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang disebabkan oleh banyak faktor. Prevalensi underweight di Jawa Timur tahun 2016 sebesar 17,3%, lebih tinggi dari target program Dinas Kesehatan Provinsi Jawa Timur sebesar 12,9%. ASI merupakan makanan terbaik untuk mendukung pertumbuhan dan perkembangan bayi. Cakupan ASI Eksklusif di Jawa Timur tahun 2015 menurun (68,8%), dibandingkan tahun 2014 (72,89%). Pemberian makanan pendamping ASI dini pada bayi di bawah 6 bulan dapat mempengaruhi status gizi. Tajuan: Tujuan penelitian untuk menganalisis hubungan ASI Ekslusif dengan kejadian underweight pada bayi usia 0-23 bulan di Provinsi Jawa Timur tahun 2016.Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan analisis data sekunder survei Pemantauan Status Gizi Provinsi Jawa Timur. Populasi penelitian adalah semua bayi berusia 0-59 bulan yang ada di Jawa Timur. Total sampel sebanyak 4738 bayi.  Analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji Chi-square dan Regresi Logistik.Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan ada hubungan antara pemberian ASI saja sejak lahir sampai sebelum 24 jam terakhir pada bayi usia 0-23 bulan dengan kejadian underweight (p=0,000010;OR=1,654;95%CI=1,319–2,052), ada hubungan pertama kali memberikan makanan selain ASI pada bayi usia 0-23 bulan dengan kejadian underweight,  (p = 0,000;OR=0,272; 95%CI=0,217–0,341).Kesimpulan: Simpulan yaitu pemberian ASI saja pada bayi sejak lahir sampai sebelum 24 jam terakhir dan pertama kali memberikan makanan selain ASI pada bayi usia 0-23 bulan berhubungan dengan kejadian underweight. Pemberian ASI saja sudah mencukupi kebutuhan nutrisi bayi usia 0-6 bulan.
