| Abstract: | Background: Breastfeeding is a crucial aspect of infant care and has significant implications for early childhood development. In India, despite the promotion of breastfeeding by the government and health organizations, the prevalence of suboptimal breastfeeding practices remains a concern. This study aims to examine the relationship between breastfeeding practices and early childhood development in India, utilizing national data sources. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4) and the District Level Household and Facility Survey (DLHS-4). The sample comprised 1,04,652 children aged 0-5 years from across India. The outcome variable was early childhood development, measured using the caregiver's report of the child's ability to perform age-appropriate tasks. Independent variables included exclusive breastfeeding practices, duration of breastfeeding, and complementary feeding practices. Multivariate regression analysis was employed to assess the association between breastfeeding practices and early childhood development, controlling for potential confounders such as maternal education, socio-economic status, and child's gender. Results: The findings indicate that exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months and continued breastfeeding up to two years of age are positively associated with early childhood development. Additionally, appropriate complementary feeding practices were found to have a significant impact on early childhood development outcomes. The results highlight the importance of promoting and supporting optimal breastfeeding practices in India to enhance early childhood development. Conclusion: This study provides valuable insights into the relationship between breastfeeding practices and early childhood development in India. The findings underscore the need for targeted interventions and policies to improve breastfeeding practices and support families in providing optimal nutrition for their children. Further research is encouraged to explore the long-term effects of breastfeeding on childhood development and to identify effective strategies for promoting and sustaining optimal breastfeeding practices in India. |
