“…Among all Brazilian deliveries, four in ten occurred in Baby-Friendly Hospitals (33 %) or in those in process to become BFH (7 %), which represents a great improvement compared to 2004, when only one in four deliveries occurred in BFH [17]. In Brazil, in 2011, the chance of being breastfed in the first hour after birth doubled if the child was born in a BFH.…”

BackgroundBreastfeeding in the first hour after birth is important for the success of breastfeeding and in reducing neonatal mortality. Government policies are being developed in this direction, highlighting the accreditation of hospitals in the Baby-Friendly Hospital (BFH) initiative. The aim of this study was to analyze the association between delivery in a BFH (main exposure), compared to non BFH, and timely initiation of breastfeeding (outcome).MethodsData came from the “Birth in Brazil” survey, a nationwide hospital-based study of postpartum women and their newborns, coordinated by the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation. A sample of 22,035 mothers/babies was analyzed through a hierarchical theoretical model on three levels, and all analyzes considered the complex sample design. Odds ratios were obtained by logistic regression, with a 99 % CI.ResultsAmong all births, 40 % occurred in hospitals accredited or in accreditation process for the BFHI and 52 % of women underwent caesarean section. In the final model, at the distal level, mothers less than 35 years old, and those who lived in the North Region, had a higher chance of timely initiation of breastfeeding. At the intermediate level, prenatal care in the public sector and advice on breastfeeding during pregnancy were directly associated with the outcome. At the proximal level, being born in a Baby-Friendly Hospital and vaginal delivery increased the chance of timely initiation of breastfeeding, while prematurity and low birth weight reduced the chance of the outcome.ConclusionsThe chance of being breastfed in the first hour after birth in Baby-Friendly hospitals was twice as high as at non-accredited hospitals, which shows the importance of this initiative for timely initiation of breastfeeding.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12978-016-0234-9) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Study done by Victoria et al found that woman who had caesarean delivery breastfed for a shorter period and resorted to pacifiers more frequently [29]. Other study suggests that women having caesarean deliveries showed a significant delay in the initiation of breastfeeding, which could lead to decreased frequency of breastfeeding and increased use of artificial nipples [30]. 14.4% mothers had breast problems.…”

“…The improvement observed in Brazil regarding this practice is probably due to compliance with the 4 th -step recommendations of the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative 33 . The 4 th step of the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative implementation is fulfilled when skin-toskin contact between newborn and mother occurs within thirty minutes from birth, and breastfeeding takes place within one hour after delivery 32 . In this study, even though the skin-to-skin contact reported was around 28% in the whole country, breastfeeding in the delivery room rates were low, ranging from 11.5% to 22.4% among the regions Brazil.…”

“…The highest breastfeeding-in-thedelivery-room rates are found in the Southern region (22,4%). The Northeast of the country is the area with the highest number of obstetric beds in hospitals of the public health system accredited by the Baby-Friendly Initiative, 32 and was associated to non-breastfeeding in the delivery room. This was an unexpected finding of our study, as birth in a Baby-Friendly accredited hospital was significantly associated to breastfeeding in the delivery room.…”
