Abstract

While underserved women are often less likely to exclusively breastfeed, some small studies have suggested that Hispanic women paradoxically breastfeed at higher rates compared to their non-Hispanic counterparts.

Examining a national dataset, we hypothesized that Hispanic women had lower exclusive breastfeeding rates compared to their non-Hispanic counterparts.
