All knowledge, information access and socio-cultural factor directly affect the motivation of pregnant women to give exclusive breastfeeding: X1 - Y1 with a value of β=0.264. X2 - Y1 with a value of β=0.316, and X3 - Y1 with avalue of β=0.284 while the motivation of pregnant women significantly influences the readiness in exclusive, breastfeeding with the value β=0.333.
