To describe breastfeeding initiation and breastfeeding at 1, 2, and 3 months, and information sources on breastfeeding among women with a recent live birth by disability status.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods. We analyzed October 2018 to December 2020 data from the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System for 24 sites in the United States that included the Washington Group Short Set of Questions on Disability (seeing, hearing, walking or climbing stairs, remembering or concentrating, self-care, communicating). We defined disability as reporting \u201ca lot of difficulty\u201d or \u201ccannot do this at all\u201d on any of these questions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results. Among 39\u2009673 respondents, 6.0% reported disability. In adjusted analyses, breastfeeding was lower among respondents with disability at 2 (62.6% vs 66.6%; adjusted prevalence ratio [APR]\u2009=\u20090.94; 95% confidence interval [CI]\u2009=\u20090.89, 0.99) and 3 months (54.7% vs 59.6%; APR\u2009=\u20090.92; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.86, 0.98) than those without disability. Respondents with disability were less likely to receive information from health care providers or support professionals (89.3% vs 92.3%), but as likely from breastfeeding or lactation specialists (78.1% vs 75.3%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusions. Strategies to ensure women with disability, receive breastfeeding support, including breastfeeding information, could improve breastfeeding outcomes.
