Abstract

For infants, breast milk is the best food. It is clean and safe, and has antibodies that protect against a variety of common childhood diseases. Breast milk meets all of an infant’s nutrient and energy needs during the first few months of life, and it continues to meet up to one third and up to half of a child’s nutritional requirements during the second half of the first year. Breast milk, here in after abbreviated as breastfeeding, is the liquid produced by the secretion of the mother’s breast glands. Exclusive breastfeeding, is breast milk given to babies from birth for 6 (six) months, without adding and/or replacing it with other food or drinks. Exclusive breastfeeding is that babies are only given breast milk, without additional liquids such as formula milk, orange juice, honey, tea, water and without additional solid foods such as bananas, papaya, milk porridge, biscuits, rice porridge and team, for 6 months. There are many factors to get success exclusive breastfeeding.
