Breastfeeding is one of the most effective ways to ensure child health and survival. The World Health Organization has launched the “Baby Friendly Hospital” initiative for the protection, dissemination and support of breastfeeding and, has published the “Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding” (the Ten Steps) for facilities providing maternity and newborn services. Although there are many hospitals Baby Friendly in the world and in our country, the exclusive breastfeeding and total breastfeeding times of babies are not at desired levels. One of the most important reasons for this is the early addition of new food to the newborn and the use of feeding bottles. However, in the 6th step of the principles “Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding” are indicate “Give newborn infants no food or drink other than breastmilk, unless medically indicated” and in the 9th step “Give no artificial teats or pacifiers to breastfeeding infants”. In this article, the violation, reasons and results of the 6th and 9th principles of ten-step principles for successful breastfeeding are discussed.
