Overview
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the effects of birth practices such as cesarean section and vacuum assisted birth and diseases such as gestational diabetes and preeclampsia on exclusive breastfeeding. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does cesarean section, vacuum assisted birth, gestational diabetes and preeclampsia affect exclusive breastfeeding three months after birth?
