ABSTRACT
Cesarean section is considered as a barrier for early initiation of breastfeeding. We found that 65.2% of mothers initiated breastfeeding within 1 hour of delivery. We found that there is no significant difference between vaginal delivery and cesarean section in early initiation of breastfeeding, (P = 0.35). We were successful in overcoming this barrier by involving a lactation management counsellor in supporting mothers in early initiation of breastfeeding following cesarean section.
