Summary

To test the hypothesis that increased mother-infant physical contact affects the likelihood of mothers exclusively breastfeeding their child for the first six months of life, the investigators will randomly assign half of the participating mothers to receive a baby carrier to use with their baby (to facilitate increased physical contact) while the other half of babies and mothers will receive standard care.
