Hosted by Ryann Monahan, this podcast with guest Carolyn Sutter explores factors that influence the likelihood of women breastfeeding at six weeks postpartum based on a study, which was conducted by researchers at the Family Resiliency Center at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The study found that women were not receiving education and information about breastfeeding at the same rates, which could result in health disparities. Researchers also discovered that more education and support for breastfeeding increases the likelihood of breastfeeding at six weeks postpartum.
