Product Description:

This study aimed to compare the breastfeeding (BF) duration of the younger siblings of children with ASD, and to determine whether longer BF duration was associated with differences in neurodevelopmental outcomes. There were no significant differences in the distribution of duration of BF among the three neurodevelopmental outcome categories. There was no significant difference in ASD symptomatology or ASD risk based on BF duration.
