Despite the good knowledge and practices among the Nepalese migrant
women, the breastfeeding practices particularly exclusive
breastfeeding were found low. A good knowledge on colostrum, breast
milk and their feeding was found in almost all the women however
the practices ware found very low to high. Emotional attachment was
much emphasised, as the cause of breastfeeding. It was lower than
the average exclusive breastfeeding rate of Nepalese women in
Nepal. Emotional attachment i.e. the affectionate relationship,
with the baby of the mother played important role to breastfeed but
economic condition and the compulsion of the work compelled the
mothers to quit exclusive breastfeeding or breastfeeding at all.
Cultural beliefs were very strong among the Nepalese families about
the breastfeeding some of them discouraged breastfeeding. Beside
hospitals, health practitioners, and breastfeeding related
organisations and family members also could be an effective means
to encourage mothers to breastfeed.
