Association of the feeding practices with trajectory of BMI Z-score change early in life. Trajectory 2 and trajectory 3 were combined as an unfavored trajectory. Poisson regression was used to estimate the risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of unfavored trajectories, adjusted for mode of delivery, age at birth of offspring, maternal education status, occupation, parity, maternal BMI at enrollment, maternal smoking status, maternal drinking status, and newborn birth weight. For the three modifiable feeding practices, the reference group was ≤ 3 months, < 1 month, and never, respectively
