Exclusive breastfeeding practice and sources of support during COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia

In 2018, the national coverage of exclusive breastfeeding among infants aged 0-5 months in Indonesia was still low. The COVID-19 pandemic can be a challenge to increase the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding. This study investigated the association between sources of breastfeeding supports and exclusive breastfeeding practices among mothers with infants aged under 6 months during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. This study used a cross-sectional study design through an online survey from November 2, 2020, to February 8, 2021. A total of 248 subjects were obtained through convenience sampling. Data analysis was done by bivariate analysis using Chi-square or Fisher’s exact test. Most of the subjects were aged 18-34 years old (90.7%), had higher education level (86.7%), had household income range Rp.3,000,000 – Rp.7,199,999 (39.2%), lived in Java Island (83.1%), had an infant aged ≤ 4 months (76.2%), and had a baby boy (51.2%). The proportion of exclusive breastfeeding was 79.0%. The most common sources of breastfeeding support were obtained from husband (91.1%) and health workers (65.7%), followed by family (62.9%). No significant association was found among all support sources on breastfeeding with exclusive breastfeeding. However, the proportion of exclusive breastfeeding among mothers who received husband support (80.1%) was higher than those who did not (68.2%). The most convenient and feasible breastfeeding supports that mother could obtain during pandemics were home-based supports. Mothers, their husbands, and families should be the priority target for health professionals to provide preventive and promotive breastfeeding intervention.

Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive in children under five due to chronic malnutrition. One cause of stunting is poor parenting patterns such as feeding in the first 2 years after birth. Exclusive breastfeeding is the best nutrition a baby receives in the first 6 months of life. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of exclusive breastfeeding with the decrease of stunting in children aged 6-23 months in Sosor Lontung Village, Siempat Nempu District, Dairi Regency. This study used a cross-sectional study design. The sample of this research was children aged 6-23 months as many as 39 people. Data collection was carried out by interview and measurement of children's length / height. Univariate and bivariate data analysis used Chi Square test with ƿ-value <0.05. Based on the bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between exclusive breastfeeding and the incidence of stunting with ƿ-value 0.037. The results showed the percentage of stunting in children aged 6-23 months was greater in children who were not given exclusive breastfeeding (50%) than those who received exclusive breastfeeding (17.65%). The results of bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between exclusive breastfeeding and the incidence of stunting with a value-value of 0.037. That is, exclusive breastfeeding can reduce the risk of stunting is getting smaller. It is hoped that all babies will receive exclusive breastfeeding so that the baby can grow optimally.

The Relationship

Introduction: The quality of a child is also determined by the health status of the child, especially in the toddler period. This period is a golden period for child development, so it is very important to ensure that the child's growth runs optimally, including ensuring that the nutritional status of toddlers is in a good category. The problem of short toddlers illustrates the existence of chronic nutritional problems that can be affected by the condition of the mother during pregnancy, the fetus, infants and toddlers, including diseases suffered during toddlers. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between parenting factors and stunting. Methods: Design of this study was analytic observational with cross sectional approach. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling by taking samples from two areas of stunting loci in Ubud District with a sample size of 92 people. The data collected are primary and secondary data. Data analysis used Chi Square and Fisher's Exact test. Results and Discussion: The results showed that most of the children were in nonstunting status with a stunting rate of 25%. The results of the bivariate analysis between the independent variables and stunting showed the following results: exclusive breastfeeding status (p = 0.01), active posyandu visits (p = 0.022) and diarrhea exposure (p = 1.00). Conclusion: There is a relationship between exclusive breastfeeding status and active posyandu visits with stunting in toddler.
