I have been hearing more and more lately about immunity and the importance of breastfeeding. Curious to know how many of us were not.

Does anyone know the prevalence of breastfeeding in the general population? It probably varies by age-group.

I added more options for the amount of time breastfed. Unfortunately, it will not allow me to add anything more to the Breastfed option. I would like to add... "unsure for how long" because some people may not know. Oh well, c'est la vie. Because I added more options, people can now change their previous vote.
