Inisiatif Hospital Rakan Bayi merupakan salah satu program antarabangsa yang dilancarkan oleh Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO) dan UNICEF. Program ini ditubuhkan pada tahun 1992 dan bertujuan untuk mengalakkan semua hospital dan pusat bersalin melaksanakan “10 Langkah Ke Arah Penyusuan Susu Ibu Yang Berjaya”. Selain itu, fasiliti ini juga perlu mematuhi amalan Tata Etika Produk Pemasaran Makanan Bayi dan Produk Berkaitan dalam usaha mengekalkan pengiktirafan sebagai Hospital Rakan Bayi. Objektif asas bagi Tata Etika ini adalah memastikan pemakanan yang selamat dan mencukupi bagi semua bayi.
Di Malaysia, Inisiatif Hospital Rakan Bayi telah dilaksanakan sejak tahun 1993. Selepas 5 tahun pelaksanaannya, pada 3 Mac 1998, Malaysia telah diisytiharkan oleh Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO) sebagai negara ke-3 di dunia yang mempunyai kesemua hospital kerajaan diiktiraf sebagai Hospital Rakan Bayi. Program Inisiatif Hospital Rakan Bayi ini memerlukan kerjasama yang rapat dengan sistem kesihatan, terutamanya klinik kesihatan kerajaan yang berhampiran dengan fasiliti yang diiktiraf sebagai Hospital Rakan Bayi.

Tertarik dengan artikel di suratkhabar berkaitan dengan susu ibu. Rata-rata suratkhabar hari Ahad (1 Ogos 2010) memberi informasi berkaitan minggu penyusuan susu ibu. Mingguan Malaysia bahagian kesihatan dengan artikel bertajuk Kekal Cantik Walau Menyusu
Antara petikan artikel tersebut:
“Pandangan itu tidak benar sama sekali,” kata Kaunselor Laktasi dari Pusat Perubatan Prince Court, Chuah Pek Chin.
Beliau yang telah lebih 30 tahun terlibat dalam bidang perbidanan berkata, menyusu tiada langsung kaitan dengan payu dara kendur dan ‘mahkota’ wanita itu tetap berubah bentuknya apabila sampai masanya.
Perubahan bentuk payu dara, katanya, disebabkan rangkaian tisu-tisu pada bahagian itu lemah sejajar dengan peningkatan usia.
Malah wanita yang tidak pernah menyusukan sekali pun akan mengalami pengenduran payu dara lebih awal sekiranya mereka tidak mengamalkan gaya hidup yang sihat termasuk bersenam.
Paediatrician Dr Koe Swee Lee explains, “Young girls (those days) grew up seeing their mothers, aunties, and neighbours breastfeed, but nowadays, a lot of young women grow up without seeing their mothers breastfeed.”
Today, the difference is if women don’t learn from their mothers the skills to nurse, they can now learn them from their own reading, lactation consultants, or even some nurses.
Dr Koe tries to make it as simple and natural as possible when she teaches new mothers how to breastfeed.“If a mother wants to breastfeed, she needs to remember only three things: feed early, feed frequently, and feed properly,” she says.
Feeding early means mothers should be encouraged to feed their babies within the first half or one hour after they are born, or as soon as possible if the baby has medical conditions that require immediate treatment.
All a nurse has to do is clean the baby and place him on his mother’s abdomen or chest. “Experiments have shown that when the baby is born, if you put the baby on top of the mother’s abdomen, the baby will actually crawl and look for the breast,” says Dr Koe. This reflex is called the ‘breast crawl’.”
