From what I heard on the radio a Brazilian study has linked breastfeeding with intelligence & 'success' later in life.
I've not read the study or seen any details so not sure about validity/is it applicable to UK/how long the sample bf for etc.
But I did also hear that in Scotland the bf rate at 10 days is less than 50%. I'm quite shocked at that. I'd have guessed it would be more like 70-80%.
Can't see this study/news changing that though.
What are the chances of GO announcing spectacular new investment in bf support in today's budget?
