Abstract

This study addresses the issue of working mothers who give exclusive breastfeeding to their babies. During this time, public overlooks breastfeeding activities by considering breastfeeding merely as a mother's duty and a mundane matter. The involvement of her husband, family, community, and government to support the success of exclusive breastfeeding is still lacking. Workers' mothers have a dual role, domestic and public duties. Breastfeeding is often a barrier to women's performance in the public sphere and indirectly it impacts on household financial conditions. On the other hand, exclusive breastfeeding provides many benefits, primary for health and economic benefits. Therefore, this study wants to analyze breastfeeding activities through the development paradigm and finds the proper strategy for stakeholders to navigate breastfeeding as a development activity. The approach used in this research is qualitative by conducting interviews with stakeholders and literature review. The concepts of gender and development are applied to analyze the involvement of partners, families and communities in supporting the achievement of exclusive breastfeeding. The government also has an essential role in ensuring women and men have equal rights in the workplace and in the domestic sphere to do the household chores and bearing the children. The social movement also proved effective in providing an understanding to public that ensuring exclusive breastfeeding is a responsibility for all stakeholders.

Abstract

Background: Exclusive breastfeeding has an important role in preventing stunting among children due to chronic malnutrition. According to Indonesia Health Profile 2020, approximately 33.9% of children under six months were not exclusively breastfed. One of the challenges to achieving successful exclusive breastfeeding comes from socio-cultural aspects. Method: This mixed-methods study examined the socio-cultural context of barriers to exclusive breastfeeding among mothers. For a cross-sectional study in Karanganyar District, Central Java Province, a total of 706 participating mothers with children aged between 6–59 months were interviewed using a structured questionnaire in 2021. In addition, in-depth interviews with mothers were conducted to enrich the findings related to the obstacles in giving exclusive breastfeeding. Result: The binary logistic regression found that male children (AOR= 1.64, 95%CI (1.06, 2.56), children living in low-income households (AOR= 2.48, 1.25, 4.92), children with low-educated mothers (AOR= 8.84, 95%CI (3.83, 20.36), children with working mothers (AOR= 6.45, 95%CI (3.79, 10.98), children with pre lacteal feeding (AOR= 5.67, 95%CI (2.33, 13.75) were more likely to have nonexclusive breastfeeding. This study also revealed that 36,1% of mothers in Karanganyar District gave honey as pre-lacteal feeding to the newborn, which hindered exclusive breastfeeding practices. The qualitative approach also confirms this finding. Conclusion: Therefore, it is important to strengthen health promotion programs related to exclusive breastfeeding to mothers and the family through the life cycle approach based on the local context.
