of Early Initiation of Breastfeeding (IMD). Basic Health Research (2010) showed that
exclusive breastfeeding behavior in Indonesia only reached 27.2%. This is much
lower than government’ aim to reach 80% by 2014. Even the government has issued a
Regulation Exclusive Breastfeeding number 33/2012.

poor communities to increase breastfeeding practices. Poor communities lack of
access on information of breastfeeding practices and immediate breastfeeding (IMD).

breastfeeding for the better life of children on future. The campaigns were developed
based on study to develop appropriate campaign messages and strategies. This paper

myths uphold by women and their families. As well as of implementation Regulation
