Exclusive breastfeeding is the provision of pure breast milk, uncontaminated with other foods or drinks, for the first six months of a baby's life.

This study used a quantitative descriptive method, namely research that aims to present the factors influencing the failure of exclusive breastfeeding in infants aged 0–6 months by describing a number of variables.
The study used a descriptive analysis with a cross-sectional approach, meaning that variables were measured only once. The population in this study were all mothers who exclusively breastfed, resulting in a sample size of 30 respondens The results showed no relationship between knowledge and exclusive breastfeeding, with a chi-square test yielding a p-value of 0.123 (p > 0.05). There was a relationship between family support and exclusive breastfeeding, with a chi-square test yielding a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05).
