Background: Early or timely initiation of breastfeeding, specifically within 1 hour of birth has benefits for survival and beyond and it is recommended by the World Health Organization. Breastfeeding initiation after the first hour of birth doubles the risk of neonatal mortality. The present study has been conducted to estimate the prevalence and determine the factors affecting early initiation of breastfeeding in rural areas of Dibrugarh, district, Assam.Methods: Community based cross sectional study from May 2017 to April 2018 among mothers having children in the age group 0 to 23 months in the rural areas of Dibrugarh district. The sample size calculated for the study was 360 children.Results: The results were analyzed for 334 children. Prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding was found to be 54.8%. On multivariate regression analysis the occupation and education of mothers, number of antenatal checkup visits, type of delivery and religion were found to be independently associated with early initiation of breastfeeding.Conclusions: This study reveals that the early initiation of breast feeding is lower in rural areas of Dibrugarh district. The findings clearly highlight the importance of imparting health education to family members and mothers right from antenatal period on infant and child feeding practices.

The policy of early initiation of breastfeeding has been socialized in Indonesia since August 2007 (Roesli, 2008). The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended that all babies get colostrum, namely breast milk on the first and second days to fight various infections and get exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months (Ministry of Health 2012). The IMD implementation policy is also expected to reduce infant mortality (IMD). In infant mortality, 40% occurs in the first month of life and early initiation of breastfeeding can reduce these risk factors for death, thereby reducing 22% for 28-day infant mortality. The research design was a cross sectional study using primary data (questionnaire). This sample uses accidental sampling method. The results showed that of the 87 respondents at Puskesmas Palmerah, the age of 20-35 years old mothers who had good knowledge about IMD were 30 respondents (34.5%), respondents with high education (SMA-PT) had good knowledge about IMD as many as 51 respondents ( 58.62%), respondents who work and have good knowledge about IMD are 24 respondents (27.59%), respondents who are experienced and have good knowledge about IMD are 42 respondents (48.28%), respondents who receive information and have Good knowledge about IMD was 69 (79.31%), while the related variables included age, education and experience with a P value of 0.384 greater than α, namely 0.05. Conclusion. Characteristics of age, education level, experience are closely related to the knowledge possessed by pregnant women, especially those related to knowledge of IMD. Meanwhile, the factor that is not related to the success of IMD is the source of information. Suggestion. There needs to be an effort to do outreach activities on Early Initiation of Breastfeeding (IMD) or supporting facilities to increase the knowledge of pregnant women, especially in the third timester.Keywords: Knowledge, IMD, Characteristics

Background: The forms of malnutrition in toddlers include stunting and wasting. Stunting and wasting that occurs in the first 1,000 days of life is at risk for stunted physical and cognitive growth and toddlers are susceptible to disease. One of the factors causing stunting and wasting is exclusive breastfeeding, which is preceded by successful initiation of early breastfeeding. The purpose of this study was to find out the relationship between early initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive breastfeeding with stunting and wasting in toddlers.Methods: This study was a quantitative research with an analytical survey method using a cross sectional design and it was undertaken in the working area of Tutuyan Health Center and Nuangan Health Center, Bolaang Mongondow Timur Regency. Samples were taken as many as 147 respondents using purposive sampling data collection techniques and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The data were analysed by univariate and bivariate using chi square statistical test.Results: The percentage of children under five with stunting was 27.9%, not stunting was 72.1%. Toddlers who experienced wasting by 22.4% and normal by 77.6%. Toddlers who received early initiation of breastfeeding were 42.9% while those who did not gain early initiation of breastfeeding were 57.1%. Toddlers who gained exclusive breastfeeding were 66.7% and those who were not exclusively breastfed were 33.3%.Conclusions: There was a relationship between early initiation of breastfeeding (p=0.000), exclusive breastfeeding (p=0.013) and stunting. There was a relationship between early initiation of breastfeeding (p=0.001), exclusive breastfeeding (p=0.001) and wasting in children under five in Bolaang Regency of East Mongondow. It is necessary to optimize stunting and wasting prevention programs and also cross-sectoral handling for stunting and wasting prevention in toddlers.

Abstract Background The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that breastfeeding should be initiated within the first hour of delivery followed by exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months. This study examined the determinants of early initiation of breastfeeding in Ghana using data from the 2014 Ghana Demographic and Health Survey. Methods A sample size of 4219 was used for the study. Descriptive statistics was conducted to ascertain the proportion of children who had early initiation of breastfeeding after which binary logistic regression analysis was carried out. Results were presented using frequencies, percentages, unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios. Statistical significance was pegged at p<0.05. Results Children of first birth order [AOR = 0.71, CI = 0.61–0.84], those who were delivered by non-professionals [AOR = 0.51, CI = 0.30–0.88] and those whose mothers were Traditionalists [AOR = 0.65, CI = 0.46–0.92] and Mole-Dagbanis [AOR = 0.69, CI = 0.54–0.89] were less likely to go through early initiation of breastfeeding compared to those of 2–4 birth order, those who were delivered by health professionals, those whose mothers were Christians and Akan, respectively. Conversely, children born to mothers who read newspaper/magazine at least once a week were more likely to go through early initiation of breastfeeding, compared to those who never read newspaper/magazine [AOR = 1.40, CI = 1.01–1.95]. Children born to mothers who watched television less than once a week were more likely to go through early initiation of breastfeeding compared to those who watched television at least once a week [AOR = 1.40, CI = 1.01–1.95]. Finally, women from the Northern [AOR = 2.40, CI = [1.77–3.26] and Upper East regions [AOR = 2.57, CI = [1.86–3.56] practiced early initiation of breastfeeding compared to those from the Ashanti region. Conclusions Empowering healthcare providers to be consistent in early breastfeeding initiation advocacy and effective community engagement on the need to embrace and practice early initiation of breastfeeding can improve the situation.

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.
