The first year of life is crucial in laying the foundation of good health. Breast feeding is the ideal method suited for the psychological and physiological needs of the infant. Breast milk is nature's most precious gift to the newborn, and equivalent of which is yet to be innovated by our scientific community despite tremendous advances in science and technology. A study was conducted to assess the knowledge regarding breastfeeding among mothers with children under 2 years of age, admitted in a selected private hospital, Thrissur district, Kerala. The objectives were to assess the knowledge regarding breastfeeding among mothers with children under 2 years of age and to find the association between knowledge regarding breastfeeding and selected demographic variables (age, education, religion, family, occupation and number of children).
