Infant Feeding Survey

The Infant Feeding Survey was conducted every five years between 1975 and 2010. The 2023 survey will be the ninth national survey of infant feeding practices. The main aim of the survey is to provide estimates on the incidence, prevalence, and duration of breastfeeding and other feeding practices adopted by mothers in the first year after their baby is born. The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has commissioned Ipsos to run the Infant Feeding Survey 2023.
