Abstract

WHO recommendations through the global strategy "Gold Standard of Infant and Child Nutrition" place breast milk as the first and main intake for babies. Exclusive breastfeeding in the world is still low at 41%, the target for 2030 is 70%. Primiparous mothers are generally unsure and doubt their ability to breastfeed and produce sufficient breast milk. This study analyzes the determinants of breastfeeding self-efficacy among primiparous mothers in Yogyakarta City. Research using analytical survey methods, cross sectional approach. The sample technique uses nonprobability sampling. Research subjects were taken using purposive sampling based on the sample size of 64 respondents (primiparous who had babies aged 0-6 months). The research location was Mantrijeron and Umbulharjo Community Health Centers, Yogyakarta. Dependent variables include maternal age, education, employment, family income, knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding and breastfeeding intentions. Independent variable of breastfeeding self-efficacy. Data were analyzed univariately, bivariately and multivariately with logistic regression tests using the STATA program with a significance level of the ? test <0.05. Education level and income are related to breastfeeding self-efficacy. Meanwhile, age, employment, knowledge and breastfeeding intention were not significantly related. The factor that greatly influences breastfeeding self-efficacy is education. The findings in this study were that the variables of education level and family income influenced primiparous breastfeeding self-efficacy and education was a very influential factor. Further studies are needed with interventions to increase the self-efficacy of primiparous mothers and pay attention to educational background and family income.
