ABSTRACT: Asuhan Persalinan
Normal (APN) always develops time by time. APN have slightly changed in its
detail explanation about early breast feeding initiation that has many benefit,
but not all of midwifes do it. Midwife’s lack of early breast feeding
initiation information and knowledge is causal factor for them who do not
practice early breast feeding initiation for themselves. To obtain the
correlation between midwife’s knowledge and behavior of early breast feeding
initiation toward midwife’s early breast feeding initiation practice. The study
is observational research by crossectional approach. The population of the
research is 36 midwifes who have Bidan Praktek Swasta (BPS) in Purwokerto.
Total sampling is used in this research by observing all the population as the
sample. Actually, there are only 30 midwifes who have the willing to be
respondents. The research use chi-square as the analysis method. Respondents
with adequate knowledge category of early breast feeding initiation is 16
midwifes (53,3%) and 18 respondent (60%) agree with early breast feeding
initiation as their behavior. There is balance respondent behavior who do early
breast feeding initiation and do not practice it as amount 15 respondents
(50%). 4) There is significant correlation between the knowledge and
respondents’ behavior of early breast feeding initiation (p = 0,000) with
contingency coefficient at 0,626 as high level. 5) There is significant
correlation between behavior and practice of early breast feeding initiation (p
= 0,025) with low contingency coefficient at 0,378. There is correlation
between the knowledge about early breast feeding initiation and early breast
feeding initiation practice; then there is correlation between the behavior of
early breast feeding initiation and early breast feeding initiation practice.
It is desirable that public health implementer practicing early breast feeding
initiation in every child bearing.
