Description
For sample children less than eighteen years old who were ever breastfed (BREFEV), BREFSTOPR reports the age at which the child completely stopped breastfeeding in weeks or months.
[show more]The Field Representative's Manuals for 1981 notes that breastfeeding includes that given by a wet nurse or if the mother's milk was given to the child through a bottle, and the interviewer should footnote the situation (either "wet nurse," "bottle," or "natural").
A similar set of variables, BREFSTOPNOand BREFSTOPTP are available for 1985 and 1990.
