Abstract

 Breastfeeding is best feeding for infants till six months of age. WHO has advocated exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) till 6 months and complementary feeding till 2 years of age. EBF supports normal growth and development of the baby, lessens the number of infections and reduces cost of living for the family. Antenatal counselling on breastfeeding and lactation improves rates of exclusive breastfeeding . This study was undertaken to assess whether antenatal visits were utilized for promotion of exclusive breastfeeding . Aim of the study is to assess the adequacy of antenatal education on breastfeeding knowledge in primigravida mothers. Main objective is to identify potential gaps in communication about breastfeeding practices.
