Encouraging Breastfeeding
The CDC’s Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity (DNPAO) is committed to increasing breastfeeding rates throughout the United States and to promoting and supporting optimal breastfeeding practices toward the ultimate goal of improving the public’s health.
Discuss the CDC breastfeeding initiative and how you will support this when interacting with your pregnant and postpartum women in the primary care setting? How will you support the mom who decides to bottle feed instead?
