American mothers as a whole do not breast-feed their babies as much as health experts would like, but African-American moms have the lowest rates of all — by some measures, they are half as likely to nurse as whites and Hispanics.

It is so sad that hasn't changed since I breast fed my own sons. They are now 23 and 20 and I was the only one in my family out of my sister in laws and cousins that chose to breast fed.
It is interesting that here in Belize we see most mothers breastfeeding.

I actually find that surprising as 95% of the Black women I know breast feed (or breast fed) their children.

The best and worst thing about blogs happen to be the same exact thing; everyone can have one.
