Looking for some statistics

Looking for some statistics

I'm trying to find information on breast-feeding for an assignment but I'm having no luck. I am supposed to come up with what percentage of mothers in the United States breast-feed.
Does anyone know of any helpful websites where I could get this kind of information???
Anything would be helpful thanks!

Just google it - I used the terms        percentage US mothers who breastfeed

It depends on what kind of stats you want - do you want how many older vs. younger mothers breastfeed,  racial and economic breakdown of moms who breastfeed,  how long they breastfeed,  etc.  Each stat is kind of based on different populations.
