Initiation Of Breastfeeding

Background: A recent trial has shown that early initiation of breastfeeding could reduce neonatal mortality by 22%, which would contribute to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. Globally, over one million newborn infants could be saved each year by initiating breastfeeding within the first hour of life. In developing countries alone, early initiation of breastfeeding could save as many as 1.45 million lives each year by reducing deaths, mainly due to diarrheal disorders and lower respiratory tract infections in children. We studied the practice of early initiation of breast feeding among institutional delivered women in district Bareilly.Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in the residence of 289 mothers who were delivered in health care institutions of district Bareilly. The study was carried out among women who delivered in 3 hospitals (one tertiary care hospital - SRMS IMS, one secondary level care hospital (district hospital) and one primary health center (PHC).  All the recently delivered mothers were interviewed at their residences that were having infants aged up to 1 month.Results: 186 (64.4%) mothers had started the breast feeding within 1 hour after delivery. More than half (59.1%) women were aware about the duration of exclusive breast feeding while only 101 (34.9%) women aware about the correct positioning for proper breastfeeding.Conclusions: Early rooming-in, skin-to-skin contact and support to the mother are the simple interventions which are likely to have the greatest impact in reducing child mortality.

Initiation Of Breastfeeding

BACKGROUND Early initiation of breast feeding implies putting the newborn baby to the mother’s breast as soon as possible after delivery, preferably within one hour. Colostrum or ‘first milk’ which is secreted soon after birth helps build nutrient stores in the child and is rich in protective immunoglobulins for the child. Early initiation helps the child to learn suckling fast leading to early secretion of breast milk. We intended to find out the determinants of early initiation of breast feeding. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study conducted from May to August 2019 in a tertiary care hospital. The sample size was 400. The study population consisted of mothers who delivered healthy term newborns in the obstetrics and gynaecology (O & G) ward of the hospital. Interview of the mothers was done using a predesigned and pretested questionnaire. Data entry was done on Microsoft Excel and analysis was done on Epi Info 7. RESULTS Mean age of the study participants was 25.66 ± 4.228. Majority of the respondents came from rural areas (61.25 %) and were homemakers (63.5 %). More than half the respondents had either middle or secondary school education. Previous information, mode of delivery, type of family, father’s and mother’s education and mother’s occupation were significant determinants of early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF). CONCLUSIONS The above study reveals some determinants of the practice of EIBF and efforts are needed in order to address these determinants, to improve this practice, especially in a tertiary care setup.

Initiation Of Breastfeeding

Introduction: Breastfeeding is the best way of providing ideal food for the optimal growth and development of an infant. Early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF) within one hour of birth is one of the cost effective strategies to reduce neonatal mortality. The aim of the study was to find out the determinants of breastfeeding practice. Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted among 207 mothers who have child from birth to 12 months in Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Clinic of tertiary care referral hospital. The mothers for the study were selected using probability sampling technique. Variables were analysed using a multivariate logistic regression model to identify the determinants of EIBF. Results: The prevalence of EIBF in the study population was 47.3%. Caesarean delivery (AOR: 3.449, CI: 1.224-9.719, p = 0.019), mothers who have done more than one postnatal visit (AOR: 2.824, CI: 1.126-7.079, p = 0.027) and low birth weight babies (AOR: 7.973, CI: 1.571-40.465, p = 0.027) were more likely to delay initiation of breastfeeding. Conclusions: Less than half newborn receive breast milk within the first hour of birth. Mothers delivered by caesarean section, who have done more than two postnatal visit and low birth weight babies were more likely to delay initiation of breastfeeding. These are the major determinants of initiation of breastfeeding. Existing breastfeeding promotion program should be strengthened within the existing health care system.

Initiation Of Breastfeeding

Early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF) in post sectio caesarea patients is the process of breastfeeding the baby to his mother immediately after birth by placing the baby on the mother's chest or abdomen so that skin-to-skin contact occurs and letting the baby find the mother's nipple and then breastfeed until satisfied. The benefits of IMD are very large for mothers and babies including accelerating the production of colostrum as a baby antibody so as to prevent infection, prevent hypothermia and hypoglycemia and prevent anemia due to bleeding after delivery. IMD becomes important to be carried out both for mothers with normal labor and with the act of sectio caesarea. This study aims to determine the effect of maternal age and education on the implementation of early initiation of breastfeeding (IMD) in post sectio caesarea patients. This type of research was analytic observational with cross sectional design. Data obtained from primary data 99 respondents by filling out a questionnaire and direct observation. The research site at Bina Sehat Jember Hospital in April 2021. Data obtained from the primary data of 99 respondents by filling out questionnaires and making direct observations. Data analysis used is bivariate analysis using SPSS statistical data processing tool. The results of the instrument test show that all variables were valid and reliable as a data collection tool. The results of data analysis showed that: 1) Age had no significant effect on the implementation of IMD in post sectio caesarea patients (p = 0.769) because the indication for delivery by sectio caesarea was not carried out in patients with high risk age, but also in productive age. 2) Education had no significant effect on the implementation of IMD in post sectio caesarea patients (p = 0.284) Because knowledge about the importance of early breastfeeding initiation and how to do it is not obtained during formal education but from non-formal education and other educational media, so that other educational media are needed in order to support the implementation of IMD, especially in post sectio cesarea patients.

Pre-lacteal feeding is a challenge to optimal breastfeeding practices in developing countries, and it directly or indirectly affects the health of infants. Furthermore, it is widely known as a distraction to exclusive breastfeeding, and the malpractice continues to be prevalent in Indonesia. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the potential determinants of pre-lacteal feeding among mothers of infants below aged 24 months. A sample of 6,455 mother-infant pairs from the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) was used. Also, multivariate logistic regression was employed to identify factors associated with pre-lacteal feeding practice. In Indonesia, 44.0% of infants were introduced to solid/liquid feeds in their first three days of life. Infant formula was the most common pre-lacteal feed given, followed by any other milk, plain and sugar water, and honey. Early initiation of breastfeeding and living in an urban area were protective method against pre-lacteal feeding (AOR: 0.24; 95% CI: 0.21-0.28; AOR: 0.76; 95% CI: 0.65-0.90, respectively), while cesarean delivery acted as a risk factor (AOR: 1.36; 95% CI: 1.14-1.63). Meanwhile, gender role attitude, parity, perceived birth size, and household wealth index was also associated with pre-lacteal feeding. Overall, the percentage of mothers introducing pre-lacteal feeds was still high. The modifiable covariates associated with pre-lacteal feedings, such as early initiation of breastfeeding, parity, and birth size were the major factors discouraging this practice.

Background: The benefits of breastfeeding for the health and wellbeing of the mother and babies are well documented. A recent trial has shown that early initiation of breastfeeding could reduce neonatal mortality, which would contribute to the achievement of the Millennium development goals. The positive effects of breastfeeding on the new-born’s health can be attributed to the components of breast milk, as well as the contact between mother and baby.Methods: This is a hospital based, cross sectional study conducted in the Department of Pediatrics and Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, at a tertiary care hospital in North Coastal Andhra Pradesh. Study period was one year between March 2018 to February 2019. 310 healthy term new-born babies of singleton pregnancy were included.Results: The prevalence of initiation of breast breastfeeding within one hour in this study is 48.7% (151 neonates). Hindu religion, literacy, urban residence, vaginal delivery, male child, breast feeding advice during antenatal period, birth spacing <2 years, not giving prelacteal feeds, absence of breast-feeding problems and maternal illness were found to have a significant association with initiation of breast feeding within 1 hour after delivery (p value <0.05).Conclusions: Innovative strategies like provision of breastfeeding counsellors in the hospital setup; constant counselling to mothers and their immediate relatives who take care of baby and mothers can increase early initiation of breast feeding.

Early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF), defined as putting newborns to the breast within 1 h of birth, may have important benefits for both infant and mother. The aim of this study was to assess EIBF practices and its determinants in northwestern Romania. This cross-sectional study was conducted from March to June 2019, based on a sample of 1399 mothers of children aged less than 24 months. The sample was recruited from the community, from 29 cities and 41 communes distributed across the six counties of the northwestern region of Romania. Mothers responded by face-to-face interviews to a structured questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors independently associated with EIBF. Only 24.3% of the mothers initiated breastfeeding within 1 h of birth. Delivering at a private hospital (adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 5.17, 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.87, 6.91), vaginal delivery (AOR: 4.39, 95% CI 3.29, 5.88), mother–newborn skin-to-skin contact for 1 h or more (AOR: 55.6, 95% CI 23.0, 134.2), and breastfeeding counseling during antenatal visits (AOR: 1.48, 95% CI 1.12, 1.97) were factors associated with increased likelihood of EIBF. Overall, the practice of EIBF was poor. Targeting modifiable factors associated with EIBF may be used to improve early initiation practice.

Background: Breast milk is the best nutrition to every new born baby. WHO recommends that all new-borns should be breastfed within one hour of birth and then on demand. Exclusive breast feeding i.e. avoiding any other feeds till 6 months of age, is best for the baby. Despite these guidelines, our national average of initiating breastfeeding within the first hour is less than 50% as per NFHS 2015-2016. The objective was to study the existing rate of early initiation of breast feeding in the study hospital.Methods: Retrospective data collection from 2015 to 2017 was used for this study. Mothers were educated about colostrum and benefits of early initiation of breastfeeding in their third trimester and during their baby shower.Results: Early initiation of breast feeding was successful among 2624 babies out of 2835 babies who were born in the study period.Conclusions: As compared to national averages, the study hospital had a superior percentage of babies being initiated early on breastfeeding. We need to educate and motivate the society to encourage exclusive breast feeding for all babies. Professional help in the form of dedicated lactation consultants of guidelines will help mothers to breast feed their babies sooner and for longer. Busting local myths and harmful practices is the need of the hour.

AbstractThis research aimed to examine the efficacy of the early initiation of breastfeeding within 1 h of birth, early skin-to-skin contact, and rooming-in for the continuation of exclusive breastfeeding until 6 months postpartum. The research used data from the Japan Environment and Children’s Study (JECS), a nationwide government-funded birth cohort study. A total of 80,491 mothers in Japan between January 2011 and March 2014 who succeeded or failed to exclusively breastfeed to 6 months were surveyed in JECS. Multiple logistic regression model was used to analyse the data. The percentage of mothers who succeeded in exclusively breastfeeding to 6 months is 37.4%. Adjusted odds ratios were analysed for all 35 variables. Early initiation of breastfeeding (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 1.455 [1.401–1.512]), early skin-to-skin contact (AOR: 1.233 [1.165–1.304]), and rooming-in (AOR: 1.567 [1.454–1.690]) affected continuation of exclusive breastfeeding. Regional social capital (AOR: 1.133 [1.061–1.210]) was also discovered to support the continuation of breastfeeding. In contrast, the most influential inhibiting factors were starting childcare (AOR: 0.126 [0.113–0.141]), smoking during pregnancy (AOR: 0.557 [0.496–0.627]), and obese body type during early pregnancy (AOR: 0.667 [0.627–0.710]).
