Abstract Background Breast milk provides infants with complete nutrition for immune development and protection against childhood diseases. Lack of breastfeeding increases the risk infant child morbidity mortality. Early initiation (EIBF) aids in provision colostrum to newborns, which infection improves newborn survival.

Breastfeeding provides numerous nutritional and immunological benefits, promotes neurological cognitive development, protects against chronic infectious diseases, rendering it beneficial to the survival well‑being of infants. According international recommendations, infants should be exclusively breastfed for first 6 months. However, despite global health recommendations funding initiatives, exclusive breastfeeding rates remain low worldwide. A number studies attribute factors that can grouped into demographic, psychosocial, economic midwifery factors, outline profile each mother who opts breastfeed her infant.

After obtaining Institutional Review Board approval informed consent, we interviewed on day discharge. Multivariate logistic regression performed using IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 24.The median time 90 minutes (interquartile range, 30-180 minutes).
