Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the inadequacies of feeding practices among infants and young children in 19th-century England. Focusing on the high mortality rates among foundlings, orphanages, and institutions in comparison to breastfed children in the general population, the author attributes the disparity to several factors. The author argues that artificial feeding methods were often inadequate substitutes, with mothers frequently lacking nourishment and resorting to feeding their children gruel or other starch-based mixtures. These practices, compounded by poor sanitation and overcrowding in these institutions, contributed significantly to the increased mortality. The book provides a rare historical perspective on the importance of early nutrition and maternal health, highlighting the need for adequate nourishment to ensure children's wellbeing.
