Background: The world is now suffering from malnutrition and remains one of the leading causes of death for under 5 children. Children from developing countries, including Ethiopia also suffer from undernutrition due to suboptimal breastfeeding practice. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the EIBF practices and determinants among children aged less than 24 months in West Belessa district, Northwest Ethiopia, 2019. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2 to February 28, 2019 in the West Belessa district. A total of 569 mother-children pairs were participated in the study. Study particnapants were selected by using simple random sampling technique. The data were collected by an interviewer-administered structured questionnaire. Data were entered and analyzed by using Epi-Info version 7 and SPPS version 20, respectively. Bi-variable and Multivariable logistic regression analysis were done. Odds ratio with 95% confidence was done to determine the level of significance value less than .05 considered as significant with the outcome variable. Result: The prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF) was found to be 77.7 % (95%CI, 74.3-81.0). Age of the mother (AOR = 2.76, 95%CI [1.21, 6.27]), antenatal care (ANC) (AOR = 3.79, 95%CI [2.58, 9.94]), and number of antenatal care visit (AOR = 1.85, 95%CI [1.03, 3.85]) were significantly associated with early initiation of breastfeeding. Conclusion and Recommendation: In this study, more than three fourth of children were received early initiation of breastfeeding within 1 hour after delivery. Age of the mother, antenatal, and number of antenatal care were associated with EIBF. Therefore, during this contact period, improve antenatal services by increasing accessibility and providing counseling is important to improve EIBF utilization.

Abstract Background Early initiation of breastfeeding is putting the newborn to breast within one hour after birth. This study was aimed to assess prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding and its associated factors among mothers who delivered by cesarean section in South Gondar Zone hospitals Northwest Ethiopia, 2020. Methods An institutional based cross-sectional study was employed in South Gondar Zone hospitals from June 12 to July 03, 2020. A total of 356 cesarean delivered mothers were included. Data were collected using interviewer administered questionnaire and entered in to Epi Data version 4.2 and then exported to SPSS version 23.0. Logistic regression statistical analyses were used to identify factors associated with the outcome variables. Results The prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding among mothers who delivered by cesarean section was 51.9%. Mothers who had intended pregnancy [AOR = 2.69, 95% CI (1.34–5.38)], had professional guidance [AOR = 2.68, 95% CI (1.18–6.10)], had breastfeeding experience [AOR = 2.25, 95% CI (1.35–3.75)], and had four and above antenatal care visits [AOR = 2.20, 95% CI (1.24–3.91)] were positively associated with early initiation of breastfeeding among mothers who delivered by cesarean section. Conclusion Type of pregnancy, professional guidance, had four or more antenatal care and breastfeeding experience were significantly associated with early initiation of breast feeding among mothers who delivered by cesarean section. Community based breastfeeding education and counseling to pregnant mothers and encouraging all mothers to follow recommended ANC visit is should be recommended.

Background: Early initiation of breastfeeding defined by World Health Organization as initiation of breastfeeding within one hour of birth, provides new-borns the best chance for survival, growth and development. Yet the rates of early initiation are still low (41.5%), varying widely in different parts of India. Present study was done to find the proportion of early initiation of breastfeeding and associated factors in a rural area.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 73 recently delivered mothers residing in a rural area of Moradabad, who were interviewed using a semi structured questionnaire with early initiation of breastfeeding as outcome variable. For statistical analysis Chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests were used.Results: 61.64% recently delivered mothers responded that they had initiated breastfeeding within one hour of delivery. Early initiation was significantly lower among working mothers as compared to housewives. No significant differences in timely initiation have been found with mother age, religion and type of family. However significant association of early initiation was found between full antenatal care (ANC) and breastfeeding counselling.Conclusions: More than sixty percent mothers initiated breastfeeding within an hour of delivery. Full ANC and breastfeeding counselling can help in improving rates of early initiation.

Abstract Background : The world is now suffering from malnutrition and remains one of the major causes of under-five mortality. Children from developing countries, including Ethiopia also suffer from undernutrition due to suboptimal breastfeeding practice. Hence, the study aims were to assess early initiation of breastfeeding among children aged less than two years, months in West Belessa district, North West Ethiopia, 2019. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from January to February 2019 in the West Belessa district. A total of 569 Children was selected by a simple random sampling technique. The data were collected by an interviewer-administered structured questionnaire. Data were entered and analyzed by using Epi-Info version 7 and SPPS version 20, respectively. Bi-variable logistic regression analysis was used to check predictor variables associated with the dependent variable. Variables having a p-value of less than 0.20 in the bi-variable analysis were fitted into the multivariable model. Multivariable binary logistic regression with a 95% confidence interval and Odds Ratio (OR) were computed. Variables having p-value < 0.05 were taken as significantly associated with the dependent variables. Result : The prevalence of EIBF was 77.7 % (95%CI, 74.3-81.0). Age of the mother (AOR= 2.76, 95%CI (1.21, 6.27)), postnatal Visit (AOR= 1.85, 95%CI (1.03, 3.85)), and Antenatal care (AOR= 2.58, 95%CI (1.18, 9.94)) was significantly associated with EIBF. Conclusion and Recommendation: We observed, the prevalence of early initiation of Breastfeeding was low in West Belessa District. Age of the mother, Antenatal and postnatal care were associated with EIBF. Hence, improving antenatal and postnatal care services through increase accessibility and providing counseling during this contact time.

Background. Early initiation of breastfeeding is a recommended practice by the World Health Organization (WHO), but in Ethiopia only 52% of the mothers practiced early initiation of breastfeeding. Hence, this study aimed to assess prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding and the associated factors among mothers in Bahir Dar City, northwest Ethiopia. Methods. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among mothers who delivered 12 months before the study began in Bahir Dar City, northwest Ethiopia. A cluster sampling technique was used to select a sample of 819 participants. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed. Results. In this study, the prevalence of early initiation was found to be 87.0%. On multivariate logistic regression, delivering vaginally (AOR = 7.37, 95% CI = 4.24, 13.82) and being knowledgeable on correct initiation time (AOR = 6.08, 95% CI = 3.71, 9.95) were found to be independent predictors of early initiation. Conclusions. Prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding in Bahir Dar city is relatively good but still lower than the national plan. Delivering vaginally and being knowledgeable on correct initiation time were significantly associated with early initiation. Increasing maternal knowledge on correct initiation and providing adequate pain relief and early assistance for mothers who gave birth by C/S were recommended.

Abstract BackgroundEthiopian government implemented baby-friendly hospital initiative and community integrated management of childhood illnesses program. Despite early initiation of breastfeeding taken as a key tool for tackling neonatal mortality, EIBF is still low and most of the neonatal mortalities were existed due to delayed initiation of breastfeeding in Ethiopia in general and the practice is not well documented in South West Ethiopia in particular. Therefore, this study aimed to assess early initiation of breastfeeding practice and associated factors among mothers of children aged less than six months of old in Mizan-Aman town, southwest Ethiopia.MethodsA community-based cross-sectional study was employed from April 15 to May 15, 2018. A total of 487 recently delivered mothers were included. The data was collected through face to face interview by using a pre-tested and structured questionnaire. Binary and multivariable logistic regression analysis were employed and p-value < 0.05 was identified as statistically significant factors, and the quality of the data were assured, checked, coded, cleaned and entered in Epi-Info version 3.5.3 and exported to SPSS version 25 for the analysis. ResultThe prevalence of timely initiation of breast feeding was 296(64.50%) in Mizan- Aman Town. Mothers who had < 24 months birth spacing history 1.85(AOR: 95% CI: 1.22, 2.81), mothers’ income level between 1001-1500 Ethiopian Birr 2.21 (AOR: 95% CI: 1.12, 4.37), Primipara mothers 2.00 (AOR: 95% CI: 1.24, 3.23) and home delivery 2.76(AOR: 95% CI: 1.24, 6.14) were important positive predictors for timely initiation of breast feeding. Furthermore, Government employee and merchant mother by occupation was found to be protective factors.Conclusion and recommendationThe practice of early initiation of breast feeding was suboptimal and still below the national average. Intervention at the community and facility level should paid special attention.

Introduction: Exclusive breastfeeding plays an important role in preventing morbidity and mortality in infants and young children. However, exclusive breastfeeding coverage remains low, especially among working mothers. This study aimed to examine the relationship between early initiation of breastfeeding and prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding among working mothers in Bantul District, Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design. The population were all women in reproductive age who worked in middle and large companies. Samples included mothers whose infants were aged six to 12 months and were selected by probability proportional to size sampling technique. Main outcome was exclusive breastfeeding, while the independent variable was the early initiation of breastfeeding. Statistical analysis were descriptive statistics test, chi-square test, and multiple logistic regression at the level of significance of 0.05. Results: Exclusive breastfeeding coverage was around 22%, whilst the early initiation of breastfeeding coverage was 10%. Early initiation of breastfeeding was associated with exclusive breastfeeding practice (adjusted OR = 2.93; 95% CI: 1.04 - 8.28). Variables that were not significantly related to exclusive breastfeeding included being a first-time mother, maternal age, maternal educational level, breastfeeding counselling during antenatal visits, and delivery methods. Conclusions: Early initiation of breastfeeding is associated with higher prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding among working mothers. To increase exclusive breastfeeding coverage, particularly among employed women, it is highly recommended to enhance early initiation of breastfeeding program.

Abstract BackgroundThe rates for the delayed initiation of breastfeeding in Uganda remain unacceptably high and reasons for this are not well understood. We aimed to determine the prevalence and predictors for the delayed initiation of breastfeeding in Eastern Uganda. MethodsThis study employed a cross-sectional study design. A total of 404 mother-infant pairs were enrolled onto the study between July and November, 2020 at Mbale regional referral hospital (MRRH). They were interviewed on socio-demographic related, infant-related, labour and delivery characteristics using a structured questionnaire. We estimated adjusted odds ratios using multivariable logistic regression models.Results. The rate of delayed initiation of breastfeeding was 70% (n=283/404, 95% CI: 65.3% – 74.4%). The factors that were associated with delayed initiation of breastfeeding were maternal charateristics including: being single (AOR=0.37; 95%CI: 0.19 – 0.74), receiving antenatal care for less than 3 times while pregnant (AOR=1.85, 95%CI: 1.07 – 3.19) undergoing a caesarean section (AOR= 2.07; 95%CI: 1.3 – 3.19) and having a difficult labour (AOR=2.05; 95%CI: 1.25 – 3.35). Infant characteristics included: having a health issue at birth (AOR=9.8; 95%CI: 2.94 – 32.98).Conclusions:The proportion of infants that do not achieve early initiation of breastfeeding in this setting remains high. Women at high risk of delaying the initiation of breastfeeding include those who: deliver by caesarean section, do not receive antenatal care and have labour difficulties. Infants at risk of not achieving early initiation of breastfeeding include those that have a health issue at birth. We recommend increased support for women who undergo caesarean section in the early initiation of breastfeeding. Breastfeeding support can be initiated in the recovery room after caesarean delivery or in the operating theatre. The importance of antenatal care attendance should be emphasized during health education classes.

Background: Early-initiation of breastfeeding is putting the newborns to the breast within the first hour of life. It is the first critical time they contact their mother outside of the womb. The current study aimed to assess the early initiation of breastfeeding in the study setting. Objectives: To assess the level of early initiation of breastfeeding and its associated factors among mothers who had a baby of less than the age of 24 months in Jeju Woreda, Arsi Zone, Oromia, Ethiopia, 2019. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study conducted involving 487 mothers from September 18 to October 09, 2019. A multistage sampling technique was employed. First, the setting stratification done in urban and rural settings. Second, ten kebeles selected from both strata. The study participants identified by systematic random sampling technique using kebele log-books registration list as a scheme. The collected data were entered into Epi Info version 7.1.5.0 and exported to SPSS version 21.0.0.0 to analyze. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression used to determine relations between independent factors and early initiation of breastfeeding. Nine variables became eligible for multivariate analysis at a p - value less than 0.05 in bivariate. The final analyses done the significance of association decided using AOR with its 95% CI, and p - value at less than 0.05. Results: A 97% response rate achieved in this study. The prevalence of early breastfeeding initiation was 74.5%. In multivariate analysis variables namely, mothers whose age category was 35 years and above (AOR = 2.34, 95% CI: (1.07, 5.11)), Pre-lacteal feeding (AOR = 0.37 95% CI (0.17, 0.79)), postpartum advice (AOR = 1.72, 95% CI (1.01, 2.95)) had a significant association. Conclusion and recommendations: The prevalence of early breastfeeding initiation was (74.5%). The finding was low compared to the world health organization recommendation. A working towards discouraging pre-lacteal feeding and strengthening postnatal advice and focusing on ways to better reach young mothers were the recommendations to bring the prevalence in the study area to the recommended level.
