I have an idea: It would be great to share the general social and governmental attitudes toward breastfeeding and neonatal care in the many nations represented here on LACTNET. Here are some basic questions:
1. Where are most babies born (hospital? birthing center? home?)
2. Is there standard state or employer-funded maternity leave? How long?
3. Who pays for LC?
4. Is there a restriction on formula marketing?
5. Are there laws protecting breastfeeding in public or pumping at work?
And, of course, any statistics or information that would be interesting.
