Breast milk and baby stimulation support optimal health, growth and development of babies. Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended as long as it is still sufficient for the baby's needs, breastfeeding has an effect on brain development, and is effective in improving children's cognitive understanding, but exclusive breastfeeding has not reached the expected target. The aim of this research is; (1) Provide learning about lactation management and infant stimulation, (2) To determine the effect of the workshop on the knowledge and skills of Family Welfare Empowerment (FWE) mothers regarding lactation management and infant stimulation. Materials And Methods : Quasi-experimental design research, conducted in Gresik Regency, East Java. Research time; February to June 2021. A sample of 80 people was selected by quota sampling. The dependent variable is skills in breastfeeding practice and baby stimulation. The independent variable was a workshop on lactation management and infant stimulation. Data collection using questionnaires and observation sheets. Data were analyzed using t test. Results : The mean value of breastfeeding practice correctly after the workshop (mean=86.80 SD=4.16) was higher than before the workshop (mean=; 48.52; SD=8.69), and statistically significant (p<0.001), and the score was statistically significant (p<0.001). the average stimulation skills of infants 3-6 months after the workshop (mean = 87.89; SD=3.53) were higher than before the workshop (mean=53.88; SD=8.76), and statistically significant (p<0.001). Conclusion : Knowledge about lactation management and infant stimulation is still not widely known to the public. Support from families and the surrounding community, especially mothers for Family Welfare Empowerment (FWE), is needed to disseminate knowledge and lactation management.

ABSTRAK Kematian anak balita di dunia dapat dicegah melalui pemberian Air Susu Ibu (ASI) eksklusif. Cakupan ASI eksklusif di Indonesia belum memuaskan. Salah satu penyebab kegagalan tersebut adalah produksi ASI yang tidak lancar,  produksi dan pengeluaran ASI dipengaruhioleh hormo prolaktin dan oksitosin, dan hormone prolactin berhubungan erat dengan jenis jenis nutrisi yang dikonsumsi.  Salah satu jenis nutrisi yang dapat menigkatkan kerja hormone prolactin adalah buah papaya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh konsumsi buah pepaya terhadap peningkatan produksi ASI pada ibu nifas. Metode penelitian quasi eksperiment desain kohort. Kelompok sampel intervensi (mengkonsumsi pepaya) dan kelompok sampel kontrol masing- masing berjumlah 16 responden.   Uji statistik yang diguankan adalah man whytney test. Hasil uji statistik  0,003 (p< 0,05). Kesimpulan konsumsi buah papaya berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan produksi ASI pada ibu menyusui. Saran diharapkan penelitian lanjut dengan desain berbeda untuk keberhasilan ASI eksklusif. Kata kunci: pepaya, produksi ASI, prolactin, oksitosin ABSTRACT The death of children under five in the world can be prevented through exclusive breastfeeding. Coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia has not been satisfactory. One of the causes of the failure is the non-smooth production of breast milk, milk production and expenditure is influenced by hormones prolactin and oxytocin, and the hormone prolactin is closely related to the types of nutrients consumed. One type of nutrition that can increase the work of the hormone prolactin is papaya. This study aims to determine the effect of papaya fruit consumption on increasing milk production in postpartum mothers. Quasi experimental cohort design research methods. The intervention sample group (consuming papaya) and the control sample group each amounted to 16 respondents. The statistical test used is the man whyney test. Statistical test results were 0.003 (p <0.05). Conclusions papaya consumption affects the increase in milk production in nursing mothers. Suggestions are expected to further research with different designs for the success of exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract Background Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) is associated with a reduction of postnatal HIV transmission and optimal infant growth. Given that the factors influencing exclusive breastfeeding are multi-factorial and context-specific, we examined the prevalence and factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding practice in the first 6 months among mothers on antiretroviral therapy in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. Methods This was a cross-sectional study conducted between January to May 2018, on 469 parturient women enlisted in the prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission cohort study in the Eastern Cape. Mothers were asked to recall whether they breastfed their infant exclusively with breast milk from birth and if so, to state how long they did. We collected relevant sociodemographic, lifestyle, and maternal information by interview. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were fitted to determine the sociodemographic and lifestyle factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding practice. Results The prevalence of six-month exclusive breastfeeding, measured since birth, was 32.0%. E Exclusive breastfeeding’s prevalence was significantly higher among married women (36.8%), unemployed women (36.6%), non-smokers (32.7%), and those who never drank alcohol (37.0%). Unemployed women (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 1.66, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 1.08–2.56) and those with grade 12 or less level of education (AOR 2.76, 95% CI 1.02–7.49) had a higher likelihood of practising EBF for 6 months since birth while mothers who consumed alcohol (AOR 0.54, 95% CI 0.34–0.85) were less likely to practice EBF for 6 months. Conclusions The prevalence of six-month exclusive breastfeeding in the study, although comparable with sub-Saharan Africa and worldwide prevalence, remains suboptimal. Advocacy campaigns on EBF must target alcohol cessation and the creation of a favourable workplace environment for lactating mothers.

BACKGROUND: Exclusive breastfeeding is the best form of nutrition for infants during the first 6 months of life. Nevertheless, the practice of breastfeeding is currently declining throughout the world. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) practice and its associated factors among mothers living in Marrakesh province, Morocco. METHODS: The data were collected using an interviewer administered questionnaire. Both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding practice. RESULTS: Prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding was 50.2%. Mothers with age more than 30 years, residing in rural area, receiving counseling related breastfeeding during antenatal follow up and having knowledge about duration of breastfeeding were more likely to practice exclusive breastfeeding than their counterparts. CONCLUSION: Although the prevalence of breastfeeding in Marrakesh was higher than the last national survey report but it is still insufficient. These findings have to stress authorities and deciders to sensitize mothers and future mothers to increase exclusive breastfeeding practice notably through the involvement of health professionals.
