The WHO reports that worldwide less than 40% of infants under six months are exclusively breastfed. If virtually all children were breastfed, about 820,000 children's lives would be saved each year. Breastfeeding is one of the most effective forms of Ensuring a favorable state and survival of children, it prevents malnutrition and can save the lives of nearly a million children. It is important to feed the child only with breast milk during the first hour after birth and exclusively during the first 6 months. (1) It has been shown that breast milk has a protective effect against infections and gastrointestinal, respiratory diseases, allergies and non-communicable diseases, reduces infant mortality and increases neurodevelopment. (3) It can be seen that 49.7% of newborns breastfeed in the first hour of birth; observing a difference between the urban area (43.4%) and rural areas (68.7%); on the other hand, 44.8% did start breastfeeding during the first day(10); In studies carried out internationally we can find that in Spain, 88.89% of mothers who claimed to have offered only breast milk being the (53.1%) during the first month of life and 56.9% stated that they had to abandon it due to the discharge of the mother's breast for the child; 59.72% responded that their babies were not placed on the breast immediately at birth and 58.33% did not manage to breastfeed their baby in the first hour after birth(18), in Ecuador a month later it was 21.7%; stating that the shortage of milk(19) Likewise, at the national level it is found as an outstanding cause of abandonment of breastfeeding and the beginning of mixed breastfeeding in children under 6 months is the academic not superior to this, I highlight that 28.6% did not have a report on BF after childbirth (22) followed by 21.4% who did not have BF guidance before childbirth(23), these, like many other factors, make us still not achieve high rates of exclusive breastfeeding not only in our country but also globally. Materials and Methods: Research approach and design The approach will be quantitative, allowing the behavior of the variables in the study group to be determined, searching for the determinants or causes of the variations; The design is descriptive cross-sectional: The study will be carried out at a specific time.
