Over 2,200 mothers simultaneously breast fed their children in Manila on August 5 as part of a campaign to take away the stigma of breastfeeding in public. A 2011 Family Health Survey (FHS) by the National Statistics Authority said over 92 percent of children in the Philippines between six to 35 months had been breastfed at some point, with 27 percent exclusively breastfed. The survey was conducted across 53,000 households in the country.
