Difficulty obtaining infant formula in the past week · Asked in 3 waves, 2023 · 3,158 responses · weighted estimates computed from individual responses
Periods loaded: week58, week59, week60. Version of FRMLA_DIFFCLT first asked in week58. Week 58 narrowed the universe from households with an infant (FRMLA_YN = 1) to those whose baby gets formula (BABY_FED in 2, 3), so the shares are not comparable with earlier weeks (e.g., 'The baby does not get formula' fell from 48 to 7 percent).
