Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative

* Based on the WHO/UNICEF joint statement “Protecting, Promoting and Supporting Breast-feeding: The Special Role of Maternity Services.”

Every facility providing maternity services and care for newborn infants should:
* Have a written breast-feeding policy that is routinely communicated to all health care staff.
* Train all health care staff in skills necessary to implement this policy.
* Inform all pregnant women about the benefits and management of breast-feeding.
* Help mothers initiate breast-feeding within a half-hour of birth.
* Show mothers how to breast-feed, and how to maintain lactation even if they should be separated from their infants.
* Give newborn infants no food or drink other than breast milk, unless medically indicated.
* Practice rooming-in — allow mothers and infants to remain together — 24 hours a day.
* Encourage breast-feeding on demand.
* Give no artificial teats or pacifiers (also called dummies or soothers) to breast-feeding infants.
* Foster the establishment of breast-feeding support groups and refer mothers to them on discharge from the hospital or clinic.
