To Succeed At Breast-Feeding, Most New Moms Need Help

Only 13 percent of moms in a recent UC Davis study managed to breast-feed exclusively for the six months that are recommended for a baby's health.   

To significantly increase your likelihood of success in SF: 

• Request a lactation consultant before you leave the hospital
