Exclusive breastfeeding is an important effort in supporting the growth, development, and health status of infants. However, many mothers still have the perception that breast milk is not sufficient for infants' needs, so they give formula milk or additional food before the baby is six months old. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge and attitudes of breastfeeding mothers about exclusive breastfeeding through the "Breast Milk Is Enough" demonstration. The activity was held on Thursday, June 18, 2026 at the Maku Village Health Post, Dolo Community Health Center Working Area, Sigi Regency, targeting 6 breastfeeding mothers. The methods used included a pre-test, demonstration using leaflets and a baby's stomach size prop, counseling, discussion, questions and answers, and a post-test as an evaluation. The results of the activity showed an increase in participant knowledge, where the good knowledge category increased from 16.7% to 83.3%, while the poor knowledge category decreased from 50.0% to 0% after the demonstration. In addition, all participants showed a positive attitude towards exclusive breastfeeding and understood that breast milk alone is sufficient for infants' needs during the first six months of life. The "Breast Milk Is Enough" demonstration has been proven effective in improving the knowledge and attitudes of breastfeeding mothers, thus supporting the success of exclusive breastfeeding.
