Background:There is an increasing evidence that exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) up to six-month of age has important consequences on health and nutritional outcomes of children. However, studies on the contextual effect of integrated halth post (posyandu) on EBF are scarce. The purpose of this study was to examine the contextual effect of posyandu on exclusive breastfeeding using multilevel analysis.

The dependent variable was exclusive breastfeeding. The independent variables were knowledge, education, age, parity, birth spacing, employment, and family support. The data were collected by a multilevel logistic regression. Results: Exclusive breastfeeding increased with good knowledge (b= 2.66; 95% CI= 0.85 to 4.47; p= 0.004), high education (b= 2.10; 95% CI= 0.29 to 3.91; p= 0.023), maternal age 20-35 years (b= 3.35; 95% CI= 1.46 to 5.24; p<0.001), multiparous (b= 2.90; 95% CI= 0.41 to 3.39; p= 0.012), birth spacing ≥2 years (b= 2.91; 95% CI= 0.92 to 4.89; p= 0.004), unemployed mother (b= 4.53; 95% CI= 2.39 to 6.67; p<0.001), strong family support (b= 2.88; 95% CI= 1.04 to 4.72; p= 0.002).
