After Pregnancy

The data about the Women Who Initiated Breastfeeding comes from the Florida Pregnancy Risk Asssessment Monitoring System (PRAMS).

PRAMS collects valuable information on maternal attitudes, behaviors, and experiences before, during, and shortly after pregnancy and tracks indicators related to maternal health, health behaviors, prenatal and postpartum care, and infant health.

In 2020, the percent of Women Who Initiated Breastfeeding (PRAMS) (Overall) was 88.6% in Florida.

Data Note(s)

Data Source: Florida Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) survey conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Florida Department of Health, Division of Community Health Promotion

    • Prevalence is excluded (blank cells) from the tables for any subpopulation with a sample size less than 30, which would yield statistically unreliable estimates.

    • Confidence intervals - Because PRAMS is a random survey and all estimates of prevalence are subject to random sample errors, we include 95% confidence intervals (CI) with each prevalence (%). The confidence interval ranges appear in parentheses.

    • This is primary, quantitative data.
