Couple of quick snaps:

While about 80% of babies are now breastfed at birth, by three months less than 20% are exclusively breastfed.

This statistic means that over 50 percent of moms were formula feeders by some point within their first year, whether exclusively or in combination feeding. By six months, the statistics are even lower, with only 25 percent of moms exclusively breastfeeding.
