Note. BF = breastfeeding.

Model 1: adjusted for age, sex, and country.

Model 2: adjusted as in model 1 and additionally for birth weight, parental highest level of education (cat), tobacco use in pregnancy (cat), self‐reported maternal body mass index (BMI), self‐reported paternal BMI, gestational diabetes (cat), and maternal gestational weight gain.
