Abstract

Lulu Wang*

China's breastfeeding standards are still not up to par, yet regional variations still exist. Disaggregated statistics for certain provinces, however, are scarce. The prevalence of breastfeeding and the variables influencing breastfeeding habits in Shanghai were assessed by this representative survey. The questionnaire was created in accordance with the World Health Organization's and indicators for evaluating baby and young child feeding practises A total of kids under the age of two were looked into, and of these were under six months old. The percentage of early breastfeeding start was 60.3%. of infants less than six months were solely breastfed The results of the univariate regression analysis demonstrated that a variety of variables, including individual, socioeconomic, and occupational ones, had an impact on the EBF rate.
