    Abstract

    In the Netherlands 75% of the mothers start breastfeeding their infants.
    After 1 month this is 46% (CBS 2012). International guidelines (WHO)
    recommend that mothers should breastfeed until 6 months. In this study
    - that is part of a larger Dutch study on mothers’ decisions to stop or to
    continue breastfeeding - we focus on mothers’ breastfeeding knowledge.
