Covariates known to impact breastfeeding initiation rates, including maternal education and prenatal care utilization, were included in multivariate analyses.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Of births at a BFH, 89% of mothers initiated breastfeeding. Comparatively, of the births at a non-BFH, 84% of mothers initiated breastfeeding. Giving birth at a BFH increased the odds of breastfeeding initiation by at least 42% (OR = 1.42, CI: 1.38-1.45, p <0.001, Hispanic White mothers) in unadjusted models and 10% (OR = 1.10, CI: 1.03-1.17, p = 0.004, other non-Hispanic mothers) in adjusted models. However, BFH may have differential effects by maternal race and ethnicity. In the multivariate model adjusting for relevant covariates, non-Hispanic Black mothers who gave birth at a BFH were 27% less likely to initiate breastfeeding compared to mothers that gave birth at a non-BFH (OR = 0.73, CI: 0.61- 0.88, p < 0.001; interaction term for BFH*maternal race/ethnicity). Similar trends were observed for Hispanic Black, Hispanic White, and other non-Hispanic mothers.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Giving birth at a BFH is associated with greater odds of breastfeeding initiation. However, when considering the race and ethnicity of mothers, these odds significantly decline, indicating a need to further explore the barriers that may preclude non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic moms from receiving the same benefits of BFH.</p>","PeriodicalId":48367,"journal":{"name":"Maternal and Child Health Journal","volume":" ","pages":"2086-2095"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11564199/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142564621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
