Abstract:
Breastfeeding provides many health benefits for infants and mothers, and is the most ideal way of feeding infants. At present, domestic and foreign studies have shown that maternal and family members of the breastfeeding awareness and behavior has improved, but the overall feeding rate is still low. There are many factors influencing maternal breastfeeding, in which gestational breastfeeding willingness is one of the important predictors of postnatal breastfeeding. The first step to achieve successful breastfeeding is to establish a prenatal breastfeeding willingness, so determining the factors influencing breastfeeding willingness during pregnancy can provide a theoretical basis for further improvement of breastfeeding rate. This article reviewed the willingness and influencing factors of breastfeeding among pregnant women in China and abroad, in order to provide the basis for formulating prenatal care strategies and health education, so as to improve the breastfeeding rate.
