Exclusive breastfeeding is a health behavior that can be influenced by a lot of factors. Being a working mother is one of the factors that limits the practice of exclusive breastfeeding, yetthe number of female workers keep increasing every year. The aim of this study is to determine factors that are associated with exclusive breastfeeding among working mothers in Umbulharjo Subdistrict, Yogyakarta City.

This is an observational analytic study with cross sectional design involving 84 working mothersselected through purposive sampling technique. Data was collected using a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using univariate analysis, bivariate analysis (chi square), and multivariate analysis (logistic regression). The proportion of working mothers who practiced exclusive breastfeeding was 67,9%. The main factors that were found to be associated with practiced of exclusive breastfeeding among working mothers are duration of work (p= 0,001 PR= 8,6 CI95%= 2,548–28,854) and health provider’s support (p= 0,000 PR= 9,2 CI95%= 2,741–30,820).
