How We Source

Nipples.fyi publishes infant-feeding content for parents. Because this is baby-health information, the sourcing bar is high. This page explains our policy.

We cite authoritative primary sources

Every factual claim that a parent might act on must trace back to a primary authoritative source: a peer-reviewed paper, a clinical guideline from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) or its parent-facing site HealthyChildren.org, a National Institutes of Health (NIH) publication, or an equivalent body. We link the source directly in a References section at the bottom of the article so you can read it yourself.

We show a last-reviewed date

Pediatric guidance changes. Each article that carries medical or developmental claims shows a "Last reviewed" date. When guidance is updated, we update the article and revise that date.

We do not use author bylines or personas

We do not use author bylines, reviewer names, credential displays, or any named persona on this site. Authority comes from cited sources, not from invented or unverifiable names. Any site that claims "reviewed by Dr. X" without a verifiable, public credential and a real editorial relationship is presenting theater, not evidence. We prefer to show you the actual source.

Affiliate disclosure

Some links on this site are affiliate links. We may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships do not influence which products we recommend or what sources we cite.

Not medical advice

The content on Nipples.fyi is informational. It does not replace the guidance of your child's pediatrician or a qualified healthcare provider.
