“…Also, mothers who delivered vaginally had a higher prevalence of early breastfeeding within the first hour (20.7% versus 1.1%). This finding was observed also by several studies (6,28,34,44,45,46). The rate of caesarean sections in our study (40.2%) was much higher than that reported previously in KSA (9.9 -13%) (26,47).…”

“…Similarly, other studies reported a lack of association between demographic factors and infant's gender (28,42,43). In a systematic review of 18 research studies from Asia, Africa and South America, neither the age of the mother nor other factors such as 1069 family income or schooling were found to be independent risk factors preventing breastfeeding within the first hour of life (44). However, other studies have reported a significant association between increased maternal age (34), parity (34), the infant's gender (6) and initiation of breastfeeding within 24 hours post delivery.…”

Background: Breastfeeding provides valuable benefits for both the mother and the baby. However, it may be delayed in some cases or not continued for the recommended duration. Objectives: The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence of delayed onset of breastfeeding (more than 24 hours) in lactating women in the National Guard Hospital, Jeddah. Methods: A brief, self-designed questionnaire that assessed the onset and duration of breastfeeding was administered via direct communication to 234 participants in the National Guard HospitalJeddah, Saudi Arabia. Results: We found that the prevalence of delayed breastfeeding in the studied sample was 73%. Respondents who started breastfeeding after more than 24 hours had a significantly higher percentage of caesarean sections, complicated pregnancies, preterm deliveries, neonatal low birth weight, and difficulties in breastfeeding. Among the studied variables, the following were positively associated with the increased risk of starting breastfeeding after 24 hours in multivariable analyses: caesarean section (OR = 7.8, 95% CI = 2.9-20.9, P < .0001), difficulties in breastfeeding ( OR = 5.7, 95% CI = 1.9-16.8, P = 0.002) and delivery time as in preterm deliveries (OR= 2.3, 95% CI = 0.8-6.3, P = 0.119) and post term deliveries (OR= 0.2, 95 CI = 0.0-1.1, P-value = 0.058) which cumulatively gives a P-value = 0.027. Conclusion: Risk factors that increased significantly the likelihood of delayed initiation of breastfeeding included delivery by caesarean section, prematurity and difficulties in breastfeeding. Health education of women in the reproductive period should focus on the benefits of early breastfeeding to both the mother and the newborn.

“…Finally, the mothers' factors included the education level, age at the child's birth, hospital delivery status and number of postpartum visits, as well as whether the mother cooked for the child alone and was given informational breast-feeding materials. We selected the control variables based on the following considerations: (i) whether these aforementioned factors affected the breastfeeding of the children (a factor that was primarily based on related studies (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10) ); and (ii) how these variables differed between the participants across ethnicities, which was determined by data analysis.…”

Objective: To determine the breast-feeding pattern of four main ethnic groups (the Han, Uygur, Tibetan and Zhuang) living in rural western China. Design: The study utilized a cross-sectional design. Setting: Forty-five counties in ten provinces in western China in 2005. Subjects: A sample of 11 783 children younger than 36 months old (8960 Han, 1281 Uygur, 792 Tibetan and 750 Zhuang) and their mothers were recruited using a stratified, multistage, cluster random sampling method. Results: The rates of exclusive breast-feeding of children at 6 months of age in the Han, Uygur, Tibetan and Zhuang ethnic groups were 11·6 %, 0·8 %, 4·4 % and 13·8 %, respectively. The rates of any breast-feeding for children at 24 months of age were 8·5 %, 25·7 %, 3·0 % and 4·3 % in the four ethnic groups, respectively. After adjusting for related factors, Zhuang children had a higher odds ratio of exclusive breast-feeding to 6 months compared with Han children, whereas Uygur and Tibetan children had lower odds ratio (Zhuang: OR = 1·291; 95 % CI 1·006, 1·657; Uugur: OR = 0·062; 95 % CI 0·032, 0·121; Tibetan: OR = 0·323; 95 % CI 0·220, 0·475). Uygur children had a lower hazard ratio of discontinued breast-feeding compared with Han children, whereas Tibetan children had a higher hazard ratio (Uygur: HR = 0·368; 95 % CI 0·333, 0·408; Tibetan: HR = 1·366; 95 % CI 1·244, 1·500). Conclusions: The breast-feeding pattern differed among the Han, Uygur, Tibetan and Zhuang ethnic groups. The results suggest that health education regarding the benefits of breast-feeding is needed in rural western China.

Introduction: Breast milk is, without a doubt, the food that provides all the nutrients essential for the healthy growth and development of children. Through effective breastfeeding practices, it is possible to prevent several chronic noncommunicable diseases in childhood, adolescence, and adulthood.Objective: To investigate the relevance of using an educational strategy in breastfeeding promotion. Methods:It was a descriptive study with uncontrolled analytical approach conducted with 36 mothers of children under 2 years of age about breastfeeding, through an educational intervention using the booklet "Breastfeeding: an act of love". Data collection took place in two moments (pre-test and post-test). Ethics Committee approved the project under protocol No. 058657.Results: Data analysis revealed that 41.6% of the interviewees stated that they did not receive guidance about breast problems from any professional during prenatal care, and 22% reported having presented nipple fissures. Regarding the initiation of breastfeeding, 11.1% of the women interviewed did not knowthe importance of colostrum, and 30.6% did not know its benefits. Assessment of the mothers' knowledge before and after the intervention obtained a percentage of correctness of 50.7% and 70%, respectively. Conclusion:The educational activity to encourage breastfeeding was able to increase the mothers' knowledge about breastfeeding and its health benefits for women and children, revealing the relevance of using this educational strategy.
