I am now checking a Lactation Specialist textbook for validity.  The
problem?

It quotes a study by Heldenberg et al that 84% of Jewish women in Israel
are still breastfeeding at 3 months.  Does this sound right to you?  It
seems to me, it depends on the definition of breastfeeding for this
statistic to be true.

A different study says 40.3% Does that sound more realistic?

Did anyone read the Heldenberg study?
