Why breastfeeding rates are so low in America?

The United States has the lowest breastfeeding rates of most developed countries. And this is a fault of the systemic issues at play. I invited Amanda Gorman, founder and chief clinical officer at Nest Collaborative and Pediatric NP, to discuss:

  • Why our rates of breastfeeding are so low in the U.S.
  • How the lack of paid family leave impacts these rates
  • How we can advocate for breastfeeding families
