“…3 In spite of the measures to promote breastfeeding carried out in baby friendly hospitals 4 and the legal discouragement of bottle feeding in Brazil, 5 there is evidence that there are two critical times for introducing the bottle: soon after birth and around four months of age. 6 The first situation occurs as a result of problems associated with breastfeeding that make it difficult for the child to gain weight. In this case, it is common for health professionals to prescribe infant formulas, generally offered in the bottle, to supplement/replace the mothers milk although the correct measure would be to investigate the difficulties presented by the nursing mother and offer guidance about breastfeeding management.…”

Moreover, it was possible to observe that weaning began around the fi fth month of life following the guidance provided by the daycare center, aiming at a better adaptation of the child to the institution's routine.…”

“…Among them, the requirement of the registration of company-owned and external daycare centers at the Regional Labor Inspection Offi ce, the company's obligatoriness to explain to women their rights and the way to use them, the modifi cation in the type of inspection and control of daycare centers and companies, and the dissemination of working mothers' rights by the media. 8 The mothers who participated in the breastfeeding incentive group and who did not offer pacifi ers and bottles to their babies weaned them after the fourth month. These results corroborate the study by Osis et al, 9 who observed that women breastfeed for a longer period of time when they receive some kind of support, either from the family or professional support.…”
