Vital Signs: Improvements in Maternity Care Policies and Practices That Support Breastfeeding — United States, 2007–2013
Cria G. Perrine, PhD, Deborah A. Galuska, PhD, Jaime L. Dohack, MS, et al.
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep 2015;64(Early Release):1-6


Although 80% of U.S. mothers begin breastfeeding their infants, many do not continue breastfeeding as long as they would like. Since 2007, CDC has conducted the biennial Maternity Practices in Infant Nutrition and Care survey among all birth facilities in all U.S. states, territories, and the District of Columbia. CDC analyzed data from 2007 (baseline), 2009, 2011, and 2013 to describe trends in the prevalence of facilities using maternity care policies and practices that are consistent with the Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding. This report summarizes the analysis.
