| During this session, two presenters will focus on breastfeeding among mothers experiencing challenging circumstances in their lives, i.e., women giving birth in Manhattan in the months following 9-11-2001 and Baltimore women experiencing depressive symptoms during the postpartum period. The Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI) in the U.S. and Quebec will be the focus of two additional presentations. The first of these presenters, will report on a national survey of U.S. baby friendly hospitals with respect to their breastfeeding rates and barriers to becoming baby friendly. The second presenter will discuss the development and use of a scoring system designed to measure the level of implementation of BFHI steps in hospitals in one region of Quebec. The final presenter will discuss the evaluation of a social marketing breastfeeding promotion program implemented in offices of primary care providers serving primarily low income pregnant Latinas in two regions of California. | |||
