Exclusive breastfeeding for at least the first 6 months

Infants from birth to 6 months are exclusively breastfed for at least the first 6 months continuously, without being given any other food, even water, fruit, or mashed rice. Exclusive breastfeeding refers to giving the infant only breast milk, without giving anything else, even water, because breast milk contains sufficient water for the infant, has disease immunity and complete nutritional value suitable for infant growth and development. If the infant is given water or other food, the infant will consume less breast milk, receive insufficient nutrients, and breast milk also contains substances that prevent oral thrush (candidiasis), so water should not be given after breastfeeding (non-breast milk), nor should mashed fruit, mashed rice, or rice water be given.
