What a state-by-state breastfeeding report card shows

Abstracts

Breastfeeding rates vary significantly across states, so a national picture can miss important local differences. “Breastfeeding Report Card By State” uses data from the CDC’s 2011 National Immunization Survey to show that variation, including Vermont’s high rates.

The article also discusses health organizations’ recommendations for breastfeeding duration. Keeping those recommendations distinct from what a state-level survey measures makes for more precise conversations about breastfeeding support.
