An interview based cross sectional study was conducted in two of the designated Baby Friendly Hospitals of Indore in the year 2008. None of the hospitals were having a written breastfeeding policy, which is routinely communicated to all the health workers and no regular training regarding the Programme was being imparted. There is a need to develop a BFHI Monitoring System to ensure that the status is kept in check. Training regarding essential Criteria of BFHI should be there for all the staff.
