Description

Definition
FPBFRELPGHOW (V397) reports how the woman thought breastfeeding affects the risk of pregnancy (increases risk, decreases risk, unchanged risk, or depends). Women who answered "No" to a preceding question about whether breastfeeding affects the risk of pregnancy (FPBFLINKPG) (V396) are coded "0" (unchanged risk) for FPBFRELPGHOW.

When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
