After years of working toward improving maternal-child health, the United States has made limited progress. One objective, however, has been met; 70% of infants are now being put to sleep on their backs, up from a 35% baseline. Other goals, such as increasing the proportion of infants being breast-fed, increasing the number of women receiving early and adequate prenatal care, and increasing the proportion of women abstaining from substances, have yet to be met.
