Reason #1 why women do not exclusively breastfeed Correct answerUnrealistic
expectations from society about motherhood. Along with lack of preparation for
what the newborn period would be like.
, Reason #2 why women do not exclusively breastfeed Correct answerLack of
timely interventions. Mother's problems at 3-7 days posed the greatest risk for
stopping which is when they are home from the hospital and alone with no support.
The fastest drop-off is in the first 10 days following discharge from the hospital
The International Code of Marketing of Breast milk Substitutions Correct
answerAn international health policy framework to regulate the marketing of
breast milk substitutes in order to protect breastfeeding. It was written in response
to the marketing activities of the infant feeding industry which were promoting
formula feeding over breastfeeding, which in turn was leading to a dramatic
increase in maternal and infant morbidity and mortality.
What does "The Code" do? Correct answerRegulates the marketing of breast milk
substitutes which includes infant formulas and any other food or drink, together
with feeding bottles, and teats, intended for babies and young children. Sets
standards for the labeling and quality of products and for how the law should be
implemented and monitored within countries. Aims to make sure that parental
choices on feeding are based on full, impartial information, rather than misleading,
inaccurate or biased marketing claims.
The Global Strategy for Infant & Young Child Feeding Correct answerIs intended
as a guide for action; it identifies interventions with a proven positive impact, it
emphasizes providing mothers and families the support they need to carry out their
crucial roles, and it explicitly defines the obligations and responsibilities in this
regard of governments, international organizations, and other concerned parties.
What contributes to low rates of exclusive breastfeeding globally? Correct
answerCaregiver and societal beliefs favoring mixed feedings (believing that breast
milk is not enough or that babies actions/issues are related to the breast
milk/breastfeeding)
Hospital and healthcare practices and policies that are not supportive of
breastfeeding
Lack of adequate skilled support
Aggressive promotion of infant formula and other breast milk substitutes rather
than promoting support for breastfeeding
Inadequate maternity and paternity leave legislation and other workplace policies
Lack of knowledge about the dangers of not exclusively breastfeeding and of
proper breastfeeding techniques
