Abstract | Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) is crucial for infant health and development, endorsed by organizations like the American Academy of Paediatrics and the World Health Organization. Despite its benefits, global EBF rates fall short of targets. Globally, 48% of infants under six months are exclusively breastfed, with significant regional disparities. In India, rates vary across states. In Telangana only 68% of infants under six months are exclusively breastfed. Barriers include insufficient support, perceived milk insufficiency, lack of knowledge, latch and positioning issues, maternal and infant health concerns, work constraints, societal norms, formula marketing, and institutional practices. Strategies to overcome these barriers involve family, healthcare providers, employers, communities, education, counselling, supportive environments, peer support, addressing health concerns, workplace support, cultural sensitivity, regulation, and policy changes. |
Keywords | Exclusive breast feeding, proper latching, BFHI policy, expressed breast milk and donor milk. |
