Despite well-known benefits, rates of exclusive breastfeeding and early initiation of breastfeeding are very low. This study was conducted to identify most important and easily modifiable barriers to Early Initiation of Breast Feeding (EIBF). This hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2018 to December 2018. Data on factors which could impact EIBF was collected by interviewing with mothers using semi-structured questionnaire. Only 306 (33.7 percent) of the total 908 mother-neonate dyads enrolled received breastfeeding within 1 hour of birth. Factors affecting EIBF included: delivery by lower segment cesarean section (LSCS), lack of prenatal advice on breastfeeding, use of prelacteal feeds, and maternal illness. Rates of EIBF were very low in present setting. Counseling during antenatal visits on the importance of EIBF, and having adequate staff to support initiation of BF, may improve the EIBF.
尽管母乳喂养有很多好处，但纯母乳喂养和早期开始母乳喂养的比例非常低。本研究旨在确定早期开始母乳喂养（EIBF）的最重要和最容易改变的障碍。这是一项基于医院的横断面研究，于 2018 年 1 月至 12 月进行。通过对半结构问卷对母亲进行访谈，收集了可能影响 EIBF 的因素的数据。在总共 908 对母婴中，只有 306 对（33.7%）在出生后 1 小时内进行了母乳喂养。影响 EIBF 的因素包括：下段剖宫产（LSCS）分娩、缺乏母乳喂养产前咨询、使用开奶前喂养、产妇患病。目前的环境中 EIBF 的比例非常低。在产前访视期间进行关于 EIBF 重要性的咨询，并配备足够的员工来支持 BF 的开始，可能会提高 EIBF。
