Factors associated with breastfeeding rates at 1 month of age: Focusing on newborn feeding behaviours in a <scp>Japanese</scp> maternity hospital
This study found that newborns' effective and sustained sucking within 1 day of birth is an important factor for breastfeeding at 1 month of age. When assessing feeding type, maternal factors such as epidural analgesia should be the focus for primiparas, while neonatal factors such as feeding behaviour should be prioritised for multiparas.
