“…Although Caesarean section (CS) was found to be associated with EBF/AEBF, indirectly it was related to the time of initiating breastfeeding. Many other studies noted that CS delays the initiation of breastfeeding [ 42 , 43 ] and is associated with the use of supplements among newborns [ 44 ] and mothers who had CS experienced more breastfeeding problems [ 45 , 46 ]. Similar to earlier findings in the same study area [ 47 ], the proportion of CS was over 60 % during the study period and CS could defined as one of the risk factors for not exclusively breastfeeding.…”

BackgroundDespite the efforts that have been made to promote breastfeeding in China since the 1990s, there is still a very low prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding. The objective of this study was to assess the current situation of infant feeding practices during the postpartum hospital stay in urban and rural areas of the Deyang region.MethodsCross-sectional sampling was used in two urban hospitals and five rural clinics in the Deyang region of southwestern China. Interviews with mothers after delivery (urban n = 102, rural n = 99) were conducted before discharge and five focus group discussions were held.ResultsThe prevalence of Caesarean section was high in both urban and rural areas (63.9 % urban vs. 68.4 % rural). After birth, nearly all mothers (98.0 % urban vs. 99.0 % rural) initiated breastfeeding. One week after delivery, the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding was 8.0 % (9.8 % urban vs. 6.1 % rural), almost exclusive breastfeeding 34.5 % (29.4 % urban vs. 39.8 % rural), mixed feeding 56.0 % (58.8 % urban vs. 53.1 % rural), and exclusive formula feeding 1.5 % (2.0 % urban vs. 1.0 % rural).Breastfeeding initiation (≤ two days after birth) was positively associated (Odds Ratio [OR] 1.97, 95 % Confidence Interval [CI] 1.11, 3.50) with exclusive and almost exclusive breastfeeding, whereas birth length under 50 cm (OR 0.48, 95 % CI 0.26, 0.87), mother’s education > 12 years (OR 0.46, 95 % CI 0.24, 0.88) and mother’s lack of knowledge about the importance of colostrum (OR 0.35, 95 % CI 0.14, 0.86) were negatively associated with almost exclusive breastfeeding.ConclusionAlthough disparities between urban and rural areas exist, the situation of infant feeding is inadequate in both settings. The high prevalence of Caesarean section, the mothers’ poor knowledge of the physiology of breast milk production, the mothers’ lack of breastfeeding confidence, the widespread advertising of breast milk substitutes, and the changing perception of the function of breasts, may influence the unfavorable breastfeeding behavior observed in the study area.

“…The inadequacy of these constructs in explaining breastfeeding duration indicates a need to further explore the role of maternal selfdetermination in breastfeeding behavior. Further, it was revealed that studies pertaining to breastfeeding selfefficacy in Asia mostly concentrates in Turkey (Alus Tokat, Serçekuş, Yenal, & Okumuş, 2015), Iran (Mirghafourvand, Kamalifard, Ranjbar, & Gordani, 2018), China (Wu, Hu, McCoy, & Efird, 2014;Yang, Gao, Ip, & Sally Chan, 2016), Hong Kong (n = 3), Cyprus (Hadjiona et al, 2016), Jordan (Abuidhail, Mrayan, & Jaradat, 2019), Saudi Arabia (Khresheh & Ahmad, 2018), Taiwan (Lee, Chang, & Chang, 2019), and Vietnam (Ngo, Chou, Gau, & Liu, 2019). Little is known about the breastfeeding self-efficacy and sociocultural factors in the early postpartum period among low-income Filipino.…”

Studies on women have identified breastfeeding confidence as an important variable in influencing breastfeeding outcomes. The mother’s breastfeeding self-efficacy in the early postpartum period was a strong predictor of the duration of breastfeeding. This study aims to assess the breastfeeding self-efficacy of the postpartum mothers in urban barangays of San Jose Occidental Mindoro. The respondents of the study were 200 early postpartum mothers distributed equally chosen from four purposively selected urban barangays. The data collection technique was through a survey interview using 14-item Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (BSES-SF) and a demographic questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The study revealed that postpartum mothers responded in the study were confident and has self-efficacy in breastfeeding their child as measured through technique and intrapersonal thought in breastfeeding. Moreover, the number of prenatal check up was positively correlated with breastfeeding self-efficacy. The result of the study can be used as a baseline assessment tool in the hospital at delivery to assist in identifying women who are at risk for early weaning.

“…Breastfeeding self‐efficacy (BFSE) which is a mother's confidence in her ability to breastfeed has been found to be highly predictive of breastfeeding behaviours (Tokat, Okumuş, Okumuş, & Dennis, ). A relationship has been demonstrated between BFSE and exclusive breastfeeding (Alus Tokat, Serçekuş, Serçekuş, Yenal, & Okumuş, ). Maternal BFSE has been highlighted as an important factor for improving breastfeeding outcomes (Keemer, ; Nursan, Dilek, Dilek, & Sevin, ; Otsuka et al, ; Tuthill, McGrath, Graber, Cusson, & Young, ).…”

Aim The aim of this study was to determine the factors associated with breastfeeding self‐efficacy among postnatal women in Kampala, Uganda. Methods This was a descriptive cross‐sectional study that was conducted among women attending a postnatal clinic at a teaching hospital in Kampala. Three hundred and eighty‐four postnatal women were randomly selected to respond to an interviewer‐administered questionnaire. We used the Breastfeeding Self‐Efficacy scale (BFSES) to assesses breastfeeding self‐efficacy (BFSE). Descriptive statistics and percentages were used to summarize the findings. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to determine predictors of BFSE. Results Participants had a mean BFSE score of 48.65. The 14 item BFSES consistently measured breastfeeding confidence with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.89. About six in 10 women (60.2%) had high BFSE, the rest (39.8%) had low BFSE. Having a partner (adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 13, 95% CI 3.46–15) and receiving breastfeeding support from health workers (aOR: 4.45, 95% CI: 1.95–6.12) were significantly associated with BFSE. Conclusion A notable number of mothers had a low BFSE. Health workers should support breastfeeding mothers to achieve the desired exclusive breastfeeding levels. Relevance to clinical practice The findings of the study provide a direction for midwives in maternity care in educating and supporting women about breastfeeding for the improvement of exclusive breastfeeding rates thus realization of benefits of exclusive breastfeeding.

Early Postpartum Breast‐Feeding Outcomes and Breast‐Feeding Self‐Efficacy in Turkish Mothers Undergoing Vaginal Birth or Cesarean Birth With Different Types of Anesthesia

Abstract: For reducing breast-feeding problems, nurses should provide more care and support to mothers undergoing cesarean birth. Therefore, the fact that the breast-feeding self-efficacy was similar among the groups might be related to culture.
