Breastfeeding intervention is given from two minutes before to 2 minutes after the immunization. In this study showed the pain level of intervention group is lower than the level of pain group (p = 0.000; α = 0.05). breast-fed infants when immunized can reduce the risk of severe pain by 80%, which compared to not breastfed infants.
