ABSTRACT: Breastfeeding is the
best way to provide nutrition for infants aged <6 months. Exclusive
breastfeeding can begin with the process of early breastfeeding initiation
(IMD). IMD will greatly help boost the immune system of infants aged 1month.
Giving late initiation of breastfeeding may increase the risk of death by 2- 4
times. Therefore, exclusive breastfeeding is supported by the implementation of
the IMD in women after childbirth. The method used is analytic correlation
based on primary data taken using a questionnaire to the 71 respondents who had
infants aged 7-12 months in the village Twinning Wetan Purbalingga. Mothers with
infants aged 7-12 months, 52.1% had done IMD, amounting to 62.0% havebeen
successful exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months. Based on the results of thestatistical
test Chi Square obtain p-value = 1.000 (> 0.1), meaning Ho accepted and Ha
rejected. This shows that there is no correlation between the IMD to the success
of exclusive breastfeeding in mothers who had infants aged 7-12 months in the
village Twinning Wetan Purbalingga. There was no relationship betweenthe IMD to
the success of exclusive breastfeeding in mothers who had infants aged 7-12
months in the village Twinning Wetan Purbalingga. Suggested to midwives in
order to further improve maternal health education on the importance of
exclusive breastfeeding for infants aged 0-6 months although not through IMD
