Article Synopsis
- A study involving 1812 Vietnamese mothers examined the practice of skin-to-skin contact (SSC) with infants after birth and its impact on exclusive breastfeeding during hospital stays.
- Results showed that 88.7% of mothers engaged in SSC, with a significant correlation between the duration of SSC and the likelihood of exclusive breastfeeding; infants who had SSC for over 90 minutes had nearly six times higher odds of being exclusively breastfed.
- Factors like completing the first breastfeeding during SSC and being born in district hospitals positively influenced exclusive breastfeeding rates, while lower maternal education and rural residency were linked to decreased rates.
