The highest neonatal mortality rate in Southeast Asia is in Myanmar at 22.3/1,000 KH, the second is Laos 21.7/1000 KH, while Indonesia is in 5th place at 11.7/1000 KH. One of the causes of infant death is hyperbilirubinemia, which is caused by several factors including gestation period, birth weight, blood type, breast milk intake, prematurity and congenital diseases or disorders. Objective to determine the effectiveness of breastfeeding in reducing bilirubin levels in newborn babiesQuasy experiments use a one group pretest-posttest design, which does not have a control group. The sampling technique uses total sampling. The frequency distribution of bilirubin levels before being given breast milk was mostly grade III bilirubin levels (40.0%) and after being given breast milk every 2 hours the bilirubin levels dropped to grade II (50.0%).
