# Early Initiation of Breastfeeding
eibf <- get_eibf(df$calc_age_months, df$child_eibf, df$child_eibf_hrs)

# Exclusive Breastfeeding for the first two days after birth
df$q3 <- rbinom(n = nrow(df), size = 1, prob = 0.5)

ebf2d <- get_ebf2d(df$q3, df$calc_age_months)

# Mixed Milk Feeding Under 6 months
mixmf <- get_mixmf(df$child_bfyest, df$calc_age_months,
                   df$child_bms, df$child_milk)

# Continuous Breastfeeding 12-23 months
cbf <- get_cbf(df$child_bfyest, df$calc_age_months)

# Bottle Feeding 0-23 months
