Abstract

Based sed on Indonesia Demographic Health Survey (IDHS) in 2012, incidences of diarrhea and acute respiratory infections in infants aged 0-11 months are 516 and 147 respectively. Additionally, infant mortality rate based on IDHS in 2012 is 32 infant deaths per 1,000 live births. Many efforts are done to overcome these problems, one of which is by exclusive breastfeeding. However, exclusive breastfeeding coverage is still low. According to IDHS in 2012, exclusive breastfeeding for infants is 41.5%. Data from Health Office of Padang Panjang City showed that there is no increase in the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding for the last three years. The aim of this study was to determine the factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding in Padang Panjang City in 2015. A cross-sectional study was conducted between December 2014 to July 2015. The subjects of 152 mothers who had infants aged 6-12 months were selected by using multistage sampling method. Analysis results showed that the significant factors were past exclusive breastfeeding experience with PR= 2.61 (95% CI= 1.4-4.8), early initiation breastfeeding with PR=1.99 (95% CI= 1.1-3.6), and family support with PR= 2.67 (95% CI= 1.1-6.4).
