These rates include women who breastfed at all, so some of them may have switched to formula in the first few weeks.

The fact is, women reaching adulthood right now are the first within almost a century to have grown up in a time when most mothers breastfeed for at least some amount of time.

Fortunately it's a free country, which means certain things are not up for a vote.

And can you back that claim up with anything at all - aside from pretending 2500 silent voices agree with you when they likely do no such thing?
