Breastmilk (ASI) is the best food for babies because it is a perfect natural food, easily digested by babies and contains nutrients that are in accordance with the baby's needs for growth, immunity and preventing various diseases as well as for the baby's intelligence, safe and guaranteed cleanliness. Another benefit that is no less important than exclusive breastfeeding as mentioned above is that breast milk is highly nutritious, affordable and can protect babies from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). This research is a quasy experimental study to examine the causal relationship or to find the effect of an intervention on the population. This research was conducted in the working area of ??the Puskesmas Portibi on the grounds that the work area of ??the puskesmas used the Wilcoxon signed rank test to see the effect of before and after consuming banana blossom on the increase in the respondent's milk production. The results of this study indicate a p-value of 0.000 (? <0.05), which means that there is an effect of consuming banana blossoms on increasing breast milk production in mothers in the work area of ??Puskesmas Portibi, Padang Lawas Utara Regency in 2020.

To the Editor.— Drs Schoendorf and Kiely1 report increased risk of SIDS, both in mothers smoking during and after pregnancy ("combined exposure") and in mothers smoking only afterward ("passive exposure"). Most previous studies2-18 that reported that maternal smoking is associated with SIDS considered only smoking during pregnancy, but some2,4,11,15 considered smoking after pregnancy. However, I am unaware of any previous study which attempted separation of smoking during and after pregnancy. Although such an attempt is commendable, certain problems with the analysis and data of Drs Schoendorf and Kiely merit comment.

The smoking habits of 56 families who lost babies to the sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) were compared to those of 86 control families. A higher proportion of SIDS mothers smoked both during pregnancy (61% vs. 42%) and after their babies were born (59% vs. 37%). SIDS mother also smoked a significantly greater number of cigarettes than controls. Exposure to cigarette smoke ("passive smoking") appears to enhance the risk of SIDS for reasons not known.
