| Core Tip |
Effective breastfeeding techniques are crucial for infant nutrition but are often inadequately practiced, especially among first-time mothers. This multi-center study in Northeast Ethiopia found that less than half of primiparous mothers demonstrated correct techniques. Key factors influencing effective breastfeeding included antenatal and postnatal counseling, timely initiation, breast problems, and prior exposure to breastfeeding information. These findings highlight the need for targeted education and support interventions at health facilities to improve breastfeeding practices, which can ultimately enhance maternal and infant health outcomes in similar low-resource settings. |
