The initiation and persistence of breastfeeding are influenced by many factors. Social networks are relational structures that individuals can identify and utilize during their access to information, resources, as well as social support. The social network of pregnant and lying-in women can not only provide them with knowledge and information, but also provide a variety of substantial social support to promote breastfeeding. Among them, the effect of support from families on breastfeeding is highly significant. Both fathers and grandparents provide direct or indirect support for breastfeeding. Co-parenting refers to the process of raising children with the participation of two or more personnel, mutual support between personnel, coordination, and co-parenting.
