5. Did you know?
63% of mothers start breastfeeding after
giving birth in Belgium. It decreases
spectacularly to 25% after three months.
The lack of support by professionals is named
as the most important reason to stop
breastfeeding.
Mothers are highly insecure about the
quantity and quality of their breastmilk.
Smokers are less likely to continue
breastfeeding as nicotine has a negative
effect on breastmilk production.
Mothers are more likely to continue
breastfeeding if they have had more than one
baby in the past.
Belgium’s breastfeeding rate
is ranked 12th of the EU
