“…In developed countries, rates for six months of exclusive breastfeeding were found to be low: 16.3% in the United States [9], 13.8% in Canada [10] and 13.4% in Hong Kong [11]. Higher prevalence was found in developing county like Indonesia 42%6 and India 46.4% [12]. In previous study, some factors had positive associations with breastfeeding duration.…”

“…Access to medical appointments during prenatal has been identified in the literature as a protective factor for breastfeeding within one hour of birth 13,36 . Data from Uganda PNDS, conducted in 2006, showed that women who sought prenatal care were more likely to breastfeed within the first hour (6 to 7%) when compared to those who did not seek prenatal care 37 .…”

“…The literature has indicated that the practices of health professionals 8,[13][14][15][16][17][18] , as well as the organization and management of health services, are essential to the initiation of breastfeeding immediately after childbirth 12 . Mothers who got the prenatal care 13 , who were counseled during prenatal about breastfeeding 18 and who received postpartum assistance from health professionals for breastfeeding were more likely to breastfeed their children in the first hour 16,17 . With regard to health services, allowing companion in childbirth, having deliveries paid by the Unified Health System (SUS) and in hospitals that received the title of Child Friendly Hospital Initiative (IHAC) 12 were appointed as stimulating factor for the breastfeeding within one hour of birth.…”

ABSTRACT:Objective: To identify factors associated with breastfeeding in the first hour of life. Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted among mothers and children under one year of age, who attended the second stage of the polio vaccination campaign in the Federal District, Brazil, in 2011. The sample was composed of 1,027 pairs of mothers and children. Breastfeeding in the first hour of life was considered as the dependent variable; and the independent variables were: socio-demographic characteristics of the mother, prenatal, delivery and postpartum care, reference to physical or verbal violence/neglect during delivery, and children health. Unadjusted and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) were used as measures of association, calculated by Poisson regression. Results: The prevalence of breastfeeding in the first hour of life was 77.3%. Inadequate prenatal care (PR = 0.72), cesarean section (PR = 0.88) and no access to rooming-in after birth (PR = 0.28) were factors that interfered negatively in breastfeeding in the first hour of life. No factor was associated with breastfeeding in the first hour of life for mother and children. Conclusions: Factors related to health services such as prenatal care, type of delivery and postpartum rooming-in interfered with breastfeeding in the first hour of life, indicating that health services, as well health professional practices were major determinants the breastfeeding in the first hour of life.

“…Some common factors such as changing lifestyles, aggressive promotion of formula milk, a general unawareness of the importance of breast-feeding and perceived insufficiency of milk could play important roles in contributing towards suboptimal feeding practices. In women delivered through Caesarean section there is a perceived insufficiency of milk contributing towards high bottle-feeding rate, which is a common finding in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and China where it was the main reason for delayed contact (21,(34)(35)(36) . This perceived insufficiency was also found to be the most common cause for discontinuing breast-feeding of children in Australia (37) .…”

Objective: Exclusive breast-feeding is estimated to reduce infant mortality in lowincome countries by up to 13 %. The aim of the present study was to determine the risk factors associated with suboptimal breast-feeding practices in Pakistan. Design: A cross-sectional study using data extracted from the multistage cluster sample survey of the Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey 2006-2007. Setting: A nationally representative sample of households. Subjects: Last-born alive children aged 0-23 months (total weighted sample size 3103). Results: The prevalences of timely initiation of breast-feeding, bottle-feeding in children aged 0-23 months, exclusive breast-feeding and predominant breastfeeding in infants aged 0-5 months were 27?3 %, 32?1 %, 37?1 % and 18?7 %, respectively. Multivariate analysis indicated that working mothers (OR 5 1?48, 95 % CI 1?16, 1?87; P 5 0?001) and mothers who delivered by Caesarean section (OR 5 1?95, 95 % CI 1?30, 2?90; P 5 0?001) had significantly higher odds for no timely initiation of breast-feeding. Mothers from North West Frontier Province were significantly less likely (OR 5 0?37, 95 % CI 0?23, 0?59; P , 0?001) not to breast-feed their babies exclusively. Mothers delivered by traditional birth attendants had significantly higher odds to predominantly breast-feed their babies (OR 5 1?96, 95 % CI 1?18, 3?24; P 5 0?009). The odds of being bottle-fed was significantly higher in infants whose mothers had four or more antenatal clinic visits (OR 5 1?93, 95 % CI 1?46, 2?55; P , 0?001) and belonged to the richest wealth quintile (OR 5 2?41, 95 % CI 1?62, 3?58; P , 0?001). Conclusions: The majority of Pakistani mothers have suboptimal breast-feeding practices. To gain the full benefits of breast-feeding for child health and nutrition, there is an urgent need to develop interventions to improve the rates of exclusive breast-feeding.
