Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Breastfeeding/human milk should also be the sole source of milk for the second 6 months. Infants start on solids when they are ready, usually at 6 months, whether they start on formula or breast milk. If infants are weaned from breast milk before 12 months, they should receive iron-fortified formula, not cow's milk.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Women least likely to breastfeed typically are younger than 25 years of age, have a lower income, are less educated, are employed full time outside the home, and are African-American.
