“…This result is similar to that observed in another Brazilian municipality close to the city of Bauru (odds ratio for EBF interruption associated with pacifier use = 2.7) 17 and is in accordance with several other Brazilian studies, which also demonstrated a strong association between the use of pacifier and early EBF cessation or interruption. 12,13,[19][20][21] A longitudinal study, carried out in the city of Porto Alegre, southern Brazil, revealed that almost two thirds of the children who used pacifiers were no longer on EBF after the second month of life; among the nonusers, the rate was 45%.…”

Objective: To study the trends and patterns of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) for under-6-month-old infants in the city of Bauru, southeastern Brazil. Methods:We compared data from three cross-sectional surveys, using similar methodologies, which were part of a project for monitoring breastfeeding indicators in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The sample included infants aged 0 to 6 months who attended one of the two rounds of the nationwide infant vaccination campaign in 1999, 2003 and 2006 (respectively: 496, 674 and 509 infants). Descriptive statistics were used to compare the prevalence of EBF according to age (in months) and group of children under 6 months of age. Differences in prevalence were expressed as percentage-points and submitted to statistical analysis (Pearson's chi-square and tendency), and the level of significance was set at p < 0.05. Factors associated with EBF interruption in 2006 were evaluated by univariate and multivariate analyses.Results: An increase in the prevalence of EBF was observed in under-6-month-old infants: 1999-2003, increase of 9.1 percentage-points; 2003-2006, increase of 6.6 percentage-points, resulting in an annual increase rate of 2.3 percentage-points for the first period and 2.2 percentage-points for the second period. Significant inverse association was observed between EBF and the use of pacifiers (prevalence ratio = 2.03; 95% confidence interval 1.44-2.84).Conclusion: EBF prevalence in under-6-month-old infants in the city of Bauru, southeastern Brazil, increased almost threefold over the period studied, from 8.5% in 1999 to 24.2% in 2006, a total increase of 184.7%. The use of pacifiers was the only factor strongly associated with the interruption of EBF.J Pediatr (Rio J). 2009;85(3):201-208: Breastfeeding, epidemiology, cross-sectional studies, child nutrition, human milk.

“…Other studies on the prevalence of EB also identify that this practice does not comply, like the national breastfeeding prevalence survey in 2008, which revealed 41% in the set of Brazilian capitals and the Federal District (13) . Other interior cities in São Paulo state, like Ribeirão Preto, Bauru, Botucatu, have displayed similar EB indicators in the last decades for children under six months of age: 21.3%, 24.2% and 29.6%, respectively (10,(14)(15) .…”

“…These are very common painful processes in the breast in the first days of breastfeeding, and pain is a major complaint that can lead to early weaning of the child. (26,27) The women also felt that the flipchart should show the importance of breastfeeding for the health of the child. However, it is noteworthy that the "breastfeeding" is also important for maternal health, and this should be reinforced by health professionals.…”

Objective: To validate the content and appearance of a flipchart titled "I can breastfeed my child" among puerperal women admitted to a rooming-in obstetrics ward. Methods: Validation study of the appearance (clarity/comprehension) and content (relevance) of the flipchart pictures among 21 puerperal women. The pictures were used as part of an instrument that includes a discursive questionnaire that was used to evaluate the content and appearance of the flipchart and the motivation and sociodemographic characteristics of the women. Results: All illustrations were considered clear and comprehensive. However, picture 6 had an 85.7% relevance compared with 90% to 100% for the other pictures. The index of global content validity for the pictures in the flipchart was 0.92. Conclusion:The flipchart appears to usable in other studies and in daily practice in the community or a hospital environment, such as a rooming-in ward. ResumoObjetivo: Validar o conteúdo e a aparência do álbum seriado "Eu posso amamentar meu filho", junto às puérperas internadas no alojamento conjunto. Métodos: Estudo de validação das figuras do álbum seriado quanto à aparência (clareza/compreensão) e conteúdo (relevância), realizado com 21 puérperas. Foi utilizado um instrumento que incluiu um questionário dissertativo, avaliação de conteúdo, aparência e motivação e das características sociodemográficas das mulheres. Resultados: Todas as ilustrações foram consideradas claras e compreensíveis, no entanto, a Figura 6 apresentou 85,7% de relevância e as demais se mantiveram entre 90% e 100%. O índice de validade de conteúdo global para o álbum seriado foi de 0,92 para todas as figuras. Conclusão: O álbum encontra-se apto para ser utilizado em outras pesquisas e na prática diária com mulheres, seja na comunidade ou no âmbito hospitalar, como é o caso do alojamento conjunto.
