“…It also ensures that the antenatal preparation of the breast is optimal, protractile nipples are formed and the lacteal ducts are patent with no local pathology. Other studies also support the contention that overall 70-80% babies initiate full breast feeding immediately after birth and it is delayed in cesarean deliveries probably due to lesser number of oxytocin pulses and lower prolactin levels in cesarean deliveries [9][10][11] . Though this was a small study involving only 180 patients, the results have been found to be statistically significant.…”

Background: Though breast feeding is natural, during the first 2-3 days, when enough breast milk is not available with mother, she may introduce bottle feeding erroneously for improving nutrition to her baby. We studied the effect of antenatal expression of breast milk at term in reducing breast feeding failure as compared to conventional method of initiation of breast feeding. Methods: A prospective study was carried out in 180 booked cases at term. Daily expression of breast milk at least once a day after 37 weeks of pregnancy was introduced in randomly selected 90 pregnant ladies. Prior examination was done to exclude any inverted or cracked nipples and appropriate treatment instituted. Result: The study group who expressed breast milk daily after 37 weeks did not find it difficult to initiate breast feeding after vaginal or cesarean delivery. Sufficient milk started flowing within half an hour of initiation of breast feeding in most 85 (94.4%) subjects of study group as compared to 63 (70%) patients of control group, which was statistically significant.There was no increase in any delivery complication. There were two partial breast feeding failures in control group but none in study group. Conclusion: Daily antenatal breast milk expression after 37 completed weeks of pregnancy significantly reduced the time for establishing full breast feeding and reduced breast feeding failures.

“…This is in line with several previous studies (26,28,46) . CS has also been associated with delayed initiation of breast-feeding and late onset of lactation (47)(48)(49) . However, not all studies have found an association between CS and cessation of full breast-feeding shortly after birth, or between CS and a shorter overall duration of exclusive breastfeeding (23,24,27,50) .…”

Objective: First, to describe the prevalence of both full and partial breast-feeding during the first 6 months; second, to study the associations between selected health service-related factors and cessation of full breast-feeding at three time intervals. Design: Retrospective questionnaires, 6 months after birth. Setting: The Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (MoBa). Subjects: In total, 29 621 women. Results: While 96?6 %, 94?0 %, 90?8 %, 86?9 %, 83?8 % and 80?0 % of the infants were breast-fed at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 months, respectively, the corresponding proportions for full breast-feeding were 84?6 %, 79?1 %, 70?9 %, 44?0 %, 16?7 % and 2?1 %. An increased risk of cessation of full breast-feeding during the first month was associated with supplementation during the first week of life with water (relative risk (RR) 1?77; 95 % CI 1?52, 2?06), sugar water (RR 1?73; 95 % CI 1?49, 2?00) or formula (RR 5?99; 95 % CI 5?58, 6?42). An increased risk was also associated with Caesarean delivery (RR 1?08; 95 % CI 1?00, 1?16) and breast-feeding problems (RR 1?56; 95 % CI 1?45, 1?67). Between months 1 and 3, the risk of cessation of full breast-feeding remained elevated in the case of supplementation during the first week of life with water (RR 1?29; 95 % CI 1?14, 1?45), sugar water (RR 1?48; 95 % CI 1?34, 1?64) or formula (RR 1?18; 95 % CI 1?07, 1?29). The same applied to Caesarean delivery (RR 1?15; 95 % CI 1?06, 1?25). Conclusions: Supplementation during the first week, breast-feeding problems and Caesarean delivery are associated with early cessation of full breast-feeding. The results support a cautious approach to supplementation during the first week of life.

“…This stage occurs following delivery, due to a dramatic decrease in progesterone, removal of milk from the breast and maintenance of prolactin levels. 10,11 In term mothers, this stage generally begins by 30 to 48 h following delivery. 10 Delay in achievement of lactogenesis stage II is common in all mothers, with 22 to 31% of women entering this stage after 72 h following delivery.…”

Objective: The purpose of this randomized pilot study was to collect preliminary data regarding the feasibility and effects of early initiation of milk expression on the onset of lactogenesis stage II and milk volume in mothers of very low birth weight (VLBW) infants.Study Design: Twenty women were randomized to initiate milk expression within 60 min (group 1) or 1 to 6 h (group 2) following delivery. Milk volume and timing of lactogenesis stage II was compared between groups using Wilcoxon's rank sum tests.Result: Group 1 produced statistically significantly more milk than group 2 during the first 7 days (P ¼ 0.05) and at week 3 (P ¼ 0.01). Group 1 also demonstrated a significantly earlier lactogenesis stage II (P ¼ 0.03). Conclusion:Initiation of milk expression within 1 h following delivery increases milk volume and decreases time to lactogenesis stage II in mothers of VLBW infants.
