This article summarizes the updated guidelines on breastfeeding with HIV with an emphasis on using relational decision-making and intellectual humility to support the conversation around infant feeding choices. The complex cultural experiences and historical disparities that influence these decisions are highlighted, along with an overview of the recent changes to recommendations for breastfeeding in people with HIV. The article describes individualized clinical scenarios that consider infant feeding decisions, outlines communication and support strategies for health care providers, and proposes a relational decision-making model to guide discussions on infant feeding options.

Benefits include improving the quality of nonnutritive sucking (NNS) and increased feeding volume/attempts/endurance, which lead to decreased time to full oral feedings and shortened hospital stays. The use of pacifier-activated music systems supports a faster transition to oral feeding in preterm infants while learning to breastfeed or bottle feed in the NICU.
