Hi Karleen,

 

A number of different measures of infant and young child feeding policies
and programs in 33 countries is contained in a new report from World
Breastfeeding Trends Initiative (WBFi), published by BFNI / IBFAN-Asia. For
information, go to the website: www.ibfanasia.org
<http://www.ibfanasia.org/>    The contact email address is:

months don't have specific age points, there is additional data on bottle
use in some of the countries.  The question used was about bottle use for
other drinks or foods, and did not include use of bottles to give human
milk.  This report is a useful resource for those seeking recent information
about a number of measures.  (I have no conflict of interest in recommending
this text.)

Hi All,

 

I'm wondering if Lactnetters might be able to help me out with references
from their country that show high rates of use of infant formula/low EBF

rates- I'm particularly looking for research that looks at use of formula
from birth in a rigorous way. I already have refs for Australia and the UK. 

 

Thanks
