Disparities in Breastfeeding Among US Black Mothers: Identification of Mechanisms

Cara B. Safon et al.

Summary: Disparities in breastfeeding rates persist among U.S. Black mothers based on birth country, with foreign-born Black mothers showing higher rates compared to U.S.-born Black mothers and White mothers. Various factors, including social, maternal, and infant factors, as well as Theory of Planned Behavior domains, were found to mediate the association between maternal race/birth country and breastfeeding continuation. Promoting interventions targeting positive attitudes, perceived control, and subjective norms may help reduce these disparities.

Impact of breastfeeding interventions among United States minority women on breastfeeding outcomes: a systematic review

Sofia Segura-Perez et al.

Summary: In the U.S., disparities in breastfeeding outcomes persist among ethnic/racial minority women, with African American and Hispanic women less likely to meet their breastfeeding goals compared to White women. This systematic review included 60 studies examining the impact of breastfeeding interventions targeting minority women in the U.S. Results suggest that policy and community level interventions, particularly those delivered through WIC, healthcare facilities, and community agencies, are likely to improve breastfeeding outcomes among women of color. Additional implementation science research is needed to scale up and sustain effective interventions and address the specific needs of minority women in the U.S.
