Rachel Myr: # at last count 40% of one-year-olds in Oslo were being breastfed. # ... and I added that in Finland ab. 15 % of 1-year-olds are breastfed. I forgot to mention, however, the Mid-Finland region, Jyvaskyla, where the BFHI and mom-to-mom bf support groups flourish. 29 % of 1-year-olds are breastfed in Mid-Finland region. In that area the figures of exclusive bfeeding and bfeeding after starting solids are much higher than elsewhere in the country.
