RESULTS: Based on the Chi-square correlation test, there was a significant relationship between the knowledge of breastfeeding mothers and the failure of exclusive breastfeeding (0.000 < α _0.005, RP = 39.952), breast problems (0.000 < α _0.005), RP = 39.8000), and maternal occupation ([0.000 < α _0.005], RP = 3.878). The role of health workers (0.000 < α _0.005), RP = 2.18333, maternal health history (p = 0.000 < α _(0.05), RP = 33.000), infant health history (0.000 < α _0.005), RP = 92.400, and myths develop in the community (0.000 < α _0.005), RP = 252.000.
