Overview:
Breast-feeding is a natural and healthy way to feed a child.
Until the past century, breast-feeding was the only way to
give adequate nourishment to infants. With the advent of infant
formula, the number of breast-fed infants and children has
declined dramatically. However, with more understanding of
the benefits of breast-feeding to both the infant and the
mother, breast-feeding is being more encouraged as the optimal
nutrition for infants. Healthy People 2000/2010 has as part
of its suggestions to have at least 75% of mothers begin breast-feeding
their infants with at least 50% continuing at six months,
and 25% continuing at one year of age. A survey done shows
that 64.3% of US mothers begin breast-feeding with 44.5% of
these (28.6% of all mothers) continuing for six months, and
16.3% of all mothers continuing at one year of age.
