The contribution of bacteria through
vaginal delivery followed by exclusive breastfeeding promotes specific microbial profiles that facilitate optimal nutrient metabolism and early systemic immune training.23 The potential short - and long - term effects of perturbations of the gut microbiome of infancy,
as influenced by operative
delivery or formula feeding, are beginning to be examined.
In a previous study of 24 healthy women,
vaginal microbiome composition became less diverse between the second and third trimesters of pregnancy and just before
delivery was enriched with Lactobacillus species, likely contributing to vertical transmission of these bacteria during
vaginal birth.21 In a study of 10 newborns in Venezuela, within hours of
delivery, the intestinal tracts of infants born vaginally were colonized by Lactobacillus and Prevotella, whereas infants delivered operatively acquired bacteria present on the mother's skin and the hospital environment, such
as Staphylococcus, Proprionibacterium, and Corynebacterium.15 Quiz Ref ID Our findings, based on a large group of 6 - week - old infants, indicated that Lactobacillus also contributes to the microbial environment of the gut but to a lesser extent than Bifidobacteria, Bacteroides, and Streptococcus.
