dc.description.abstract	Factors that influence exclusive breastfeeding in Namibia are important, especially in light of the implementation of the Baby and Mother Friendly Initiative. Infant feeding practices, especially breastfeeding, are important public health issues, particularly in the prevention of HIV transmission from mother to child. This thesis determined the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding and measures the association of demographic and service-related factors on exclusive and non-exclusive breastfeeding practices.	en_US
