abstract: 'Introduction Among all barriers to breastfeeding, the need to work has
|
||||
|
||||
been cited as one of the top reasons for not breastfeeding overall and
|
||||
|
||||
for early weaning among mothers who seek to breastfeed. We aimed to
|
||||
|
||||
examine whether extending the duration of paid maternity leave available
|
||||
|
||||
to new mothers affected early initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive
|
||||
|
||||
breastfeeding under 6 months and breastfeeding duration in low-income
|
||||
|
||||
and middle-income countries (LMICs).
|
||||
|
||||
Methods We merged longitudinal data measuring national maternity leave
|
||||
|
||||
policies with information on breasffeeding related to 992 419 live
|
||||
|
||||
births occurring between 1996 and 2014 in 38 LMICs that participated in
|
||||
|
||||
the Demographic and Health Surveys. We used a difference-in-differences
|
||||
|
||||
approach to compare changes in the prevalence of early initiation and
|
||||
|
||||
exclusive breastfeeding, as well as the duration of breasffeeding, among
|
||||
|
||||
treated countries that lengthened their paid maternity leave policy
|
||||
|
||||
between 1995 and 2013 versus control countries that did not. Regression
|
||||
|
||||
models included country and year fixed effects, as well as measured
|
||||
|
||||
individual-level, household-level and country-level covariates. All
|
||||
|
||||
models incorporated robust SEs and respondent-level sampling weights.
|
||||
|
||||
Results A 1-month increase in the legislated duration of paid maternity
|
||||
|
||||
leave was associated with a 7.4 percentage point increase (95\% CI 3.2
|
||||
|
||||
to 11.7) in the prevalence of early initiation of breasffeeding, a 5.9
|
||||
|
||||
percentage point increase (95\% CI 2.0 to 9.8) in the prevalence of
|
||||
|
||||
exclusive breastfeeding and a 2.2- month increase (95\% CI 1.1 to 3.4)
|
||||
|
||||
in breasffeeding duration.
|
||||
|
||||
Conclusion Extending the duration of legislated paid maternity leave
|
||||
|
||||
appears to promote breasffeeding practices in LMICs. Our findings
|
||||
|
||||
suggest a potential mechanism to reduce barriers to breasffeeding for
|
||||
|
||||
working mothers.'
