Book excerpt: This is the sixth national survey of infant feeding practices. The aim is to provide national figures on the incidence, prevalence and duration of breastfeeding and other practices adopted by mothers in the early weeks and up to nine months after birth. The chapters looked at: incidence and duration of breastfeeding; the use of milk other than breast milk; antenatal care, smoking and drinking; choice of feeding method; birth and post natal care; feeding after the early weeks; additional drinks and supplementary vitamins; solid foods. The headline figure is that the initial breastfeeding rates were 71% in England and Wales, 63% in Scotland and 54% in Northern Ireland, which represent a significant increase from the survey in 1995

Book excerpt: The Infant Feeding Survey is a survey of mothers in the UK carried out by the Office for National Statistics on behalf of UK Health Departments. The Survey has been carried out every five years since 1975. The Survey interviews mothers on how they feed their babies from birth to nine months, and on weaning practices. Data are analysed by the age of infant (one, two and six weeks; four, six and nine months) and, in some cases, by age of mother, but not by sex of infant. Data are analysed by broad geographical area. Socio-economic analysis is by main occupation of mother and by social class of husband or partner. Data are not analysed by ethnic group.
Download or read book Infant Feeding Preferences of Significant Family Members and Mother s Intention to Breastfeed written by Rebecca Elizabeth Mueffelmann and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breastfeeding is demonstrably beneficial to both infants and mothers, yet breastfeeding rates in the United States remain lower than national goals. Many factors influence mothers' choices regarding infant feeding behavior, notably the opinions of significant family members, such as the baby's father and maternal grandmother. This study analyzed data from the Infant Feeding Practices Survey II (2005-2007) to examine the relationship between the infant feeding preferences of these significant family members and a mother's intention to exclusively breastfeed during the first few weeks of her baby's life. After adjustment for relevant covariates, it was found that a preference for exclusive breastfeeding expressed by the baby's father or maternal grandmother significantly increased the odds that a pregnant woman intended to exclusively breastfeed (Fathers: OR 66.24, 95% CI 29.96, 146.41; grandmothers: OR 13.76, 95% CI 8.92, 21.24). These results have important implications for breastfeeding interventions, indicating that significant family members should be targeted along with pregnant mothers.
Download or read book Infant Feeding Practices written by Pranee Liamputtong and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s natural... It’s unsightly... It’s normal... It’s dangerous. To breastfeed or not? For millions of women around the world, this personal decision is influenced by numerous social, cultural, and health factors. Infant Feeding Practices is the first book to delve into these factors from a global perspective, revealing striking similarities and differences from country to country. Dispatches from Asia, Australia, Africa, the U.K., and the U.S. explore as wide a gamut of salient issues affecting feeding practices as traditional beliefs about colostrums, “breast is best” campaigns, partner attitudes, workplace culture, direct government intervention, and the pressure to be a “good mother.” Throughout these informative pages, women are seen balancing innovation and tradition to nurture healthy, thriving babies. A sampling of topics covered: • Policy versus practice in infant feeding. • Infant feeding in the age of AIDS. • Managing the lactating body: the view from the U.S. • Motherhood, work, and feeding. • The effects of migration on infant feeding. • From breastfeeding tradition to optimal breastfeeding practice. Infant Feeding Practices is a first-of-its-kind resource for researchers and practioners in maternal and child health, public health, global health, and cultural anthropology seeking empirical findings and culturally diverse information on this sensitive issue.

Download or read book The Surgeon General s Call to Action to Support Breastfeeding written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For nearly all infants, breastfeeding is the best source of infant nutrition and immunologic protection, and it provides remarkable health benefits to mothers as well. Babies who are breastfed are less likely to become overweight and obese. Many mothers in the United States want to breastfeed, and most try. And yet within only three months after giving birth, more than two-thirds of breastfeeding mothers have already begun using formula. By six months postpartum, more than half of mothers have given up on breastfeeding, and mothers who breastfeed one-yearolds or toddlers are a rarity in our society. October 2010 marked the 10th anniversary of the release of the HHS Blueprint for Action on Breastfeeding, in which former Surgeon General David Satcher, M.D., Ph. D., reiterated the commitment of previous Surgeons General to support breastfeeding as a public health goal. This was the first comprehensive framework for national action on breastfeeding. It was created through collaboration among representatives from medical, business, women's health, and advocacy groups as well as academic communities. The Blueprint provided specific action steps for the health care system, researchers, employers, and communities to better protect, promote, and support breastfeeding. I have issued this Call to Action because the time has come to set forth the important roles and responsibilities of clinicians, employers, communities, researchers, and government leaders and to urge us all to take on a commitment to enable mothers to meet their personal goals for breastfeeding. Mothers are acutely aware of and devoted to their responsibilities when it comes to feeding their children, but the responsibilities of others must be identified so that all mothers can obtain the information, help, and support they deserve when they breastfeed their infants. Identifying the support systems that are needed to help mothers meet their personal breastfeeding goals will allow them to stop feeling guilty and alone when problems with breastfeeding arise. All too often, mothers who wish to breastfeed encounter daunting challenges in moving through the health care system. Furthermore, there is often an incompatibility between employment and breastfeeding, but with help this is not impossible to overcome. Even so, because the barriers can seem insurmountable at times, many mothers stop breastfeeding. In addition, families are often unable to find the support they need in their communities to make breastfeeding work for them. From a societal perspective, many research questions related to breastfeeding remain unanswered, and for too long, breastfeeding has received insufficient national attention as a public health issue. This Call to Action describes in detail how different people and organizations can contribute to the health of mothers and their children. Rarely are we given the chance to make such a profound and lasting difference in the lives of so many. I am confident that this Call to Action will spark countless imaginative, effective, and mutually supportive endeavors that improve support for breastfeeding mothers and children in our nation."--Page v.
