Description:

Findings presented in this report from Cycle II of the National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) confirm a significant reversal of the trends in breast feeding among American mothers described in detail in an earlier report based on Cycle I of the survey. These data show that the downward trend that had been in progress since the 1950’s was reversed in the early 1970’s.
