It belongs an observational analytical research with historical cohort design. Thesample size was 84 consisting of 42 mothers with exclusive breastfeeding and 42 without exclusive breastfeeding who had babiesaged> 6-12 months from November to December 2016. Data were collected through interviews. Data were analyzed using chisquare, RR, cox regression. The results indicated that the incidence of diarrhea in babies who had a history of receiving exclusivebreastfeeding was 11.9% and in infants who did not receive exclusive breastfeeding was 35.7%. The results of the bivariateanalysis indicated that the factors related to the incidence of diarrhea were breastfeeding (p-value 0.010, RR 0.333), nutritionalstatus (p-value 0.003, RR 5.0) and occupation (p-value 0.048, RR 2.111). The rate of incidence of diarrhea in babies withoutexclusive breastfeeding was 27 of 100 babies/ month, which was higher than those with exclusive breastfeeding by 10 of 100babies/month. The multivariate analysis indicated that in regard to breastfeeding and occupation it was indicated thatbreastfeeding was the most influential factor in the incidence of diarrhea in babies (Coef B -1.059, p-value 0.046 and RR 0.347).
