Note: Status included three categories: not breastfeeding, non-exclusive breastfeeding, and exclusive breastfeeding; OR are adjusted for Intent and reference category for Status is not breastfeeding. Reference category for dichotomised Breastfeeding (which combines exclusive breastfeeding and only breastfeeding) and Any Breastfeeding is No. OR at 72 hours was not calculable as there were no mothers in the intervention group not breastfeeding; Low N's in other cells for Status make the OR unstable.
