I am sure it is true that maternity leave affects BF. I know from
experience with the moms I help that lower income women returning to work
frequently quit BF because they cannot afford pumps/are unable to work on
flexible schedules, etc. But why do I keep hearing the quote that in the US
at least, BF rates are NOT in fact higher among stay at home Moms than
among working mothers? Anyone know where this comes from and what is
actually the case?
