Abstract Breastfeeding offers ideal food and nutrition for infants; however, structural barriers may amplify breastfeeding inequities. We aimed to identify whether household insecurity (HFI) is associated with exclusive continued (EBF CBF) as recommended by the World Health Organization/United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) Following Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta‐Analysis, literature searches using ‘breastfeeding’, ‘food insecurity’ ‘infant’ terms were conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Global LILACS from inception through November 2023, without language restrictions, yielding 1382 publications (PROSPERO:CRD42022329836). Predetermined eligibility criteria yielded 12 included studies (nine cross‐sectional three cohorts). The risk of bias was assessed Effective Public Practice Project. Meta‐analysis performed assessing EBF ( n = 10), metaregression used explore heterogeneity across studies. Prevalence ranged 1.6% 85.3%, a lower prevalence among HFI. pooled effect association between HFI presented an odds ratio (OR) 0.61 (95% CI 0.49–0.76) consistent results marginal (OR 0.72, 95% 0.55–0.94), moderate 0.59, 0.41–0.84) severe 0.49, 0.32–0.76). High found only when dichotomized. CBF 35.4% 78.0%, inconsistent HFI; meta‐analysis not due low number 3). concluded that levels are EBF. Integrating service policy‐level strategies, such screening, referrals, skilled counseling access comprehensive social programs, could reduce inequities promote adherence Organization/UNICEF recommendations food‐insecure families.
