In your notes/slides you have read about the importance of breastfeeding for both the mother and infant.
Please write 2 detailed paragraphs sentences in response to each of the following questions. This is not a
research assignment–I am asking for your ideas and opinions.
1.Less than 1/3 of new mothers breastfeed for the recommended period of time (at least 12 months). Why do
you think more women don’t follow the guidelines for breastfeeding in the US? (4 pts)
2.Do you think all cultures have similar attitudes toward breastfeeding? Explain. You can use examples from
other cultures you may be familiar with or base your answer on what you have heard about this from family and
friends.
