Among doing the hard work, it's also important to celebrate the successes. The CDC published the 2016 #Breastfeeding Report Card and there's lots of good stuff to celebrate! "Breastfeeding rates continue to rise in the U.S. Among infants born in 2013, 4 out of 5 (81.1%) started to breastfeed, over half (51.8%) were breastfeeding at 6 months, and almost one third (30.7%) were breastfeeding at 12 months."
