Grant Activity:
An early start to nutritional health: Improving breastfeeding of Western Australian Aboriginal babies.
Purpose:
Breastfeeding has been recognised globally as an exceptional and natural protective factor for infants and their mothers. We know from studies conducted over a decade ago that the rate of breastfeeding for Aboriginal babies in the Perth area is high at discharge but drops substantially in the six months following. This study aims to achieve improved initiation and maintenance rates of breastfeeding for Aboriginal babies within the Perth metropolitan area.
