"Popular knowledge is that the United States has a major problem in supporting mothers who wish to continue with exclusive breastfeeding at least for 3 months, let alone for the recommended 6 months. The absence of paid maternity leave, except for rare state programs (such as in New York, California, New Jersey, and Rhode Island, which have enacted programs to provide partial pay to workers taking time off to bond with a new child), is most likely “a” if not “the” major variable that results in the disappointing statistics. As such, for want of a better solution, the emphasis has been on the development of employer-based programs that provide proper designated clean facilities and adequate release time during the work hours to allow for pumping and storing mother's own milk. Such programs, in turn, result in the availability of adequate volumes of mother's milk and thus facilitate an infant being at least nourished exclusively by human milk while not exclusively breastfeeding."
