“…4 The prior experience with breastfeeding increases the prevalence of success in exclusive breastfeeding (EBF). 5 On the other hand, despite the knowledge coming from professionals or family members in relation to EBF, it has not been sufficient for the orientations to be followed, 6 which would be essential considering that the establishment of BF is associated with the lower need of complementary NNS. 7…”

Objective: To evaluate the knowledge and expectations of mothers of preterm newborn infants admitted in a neonatal intensive care unit about breastfeeding and pacifier use, and to analyze their experience in dealing with the sucking urge in the first months of life. Methods: Mothers were interviewed during hospitalization of the newborn in the neonatal intensive care unit and when the infant was six months old. All mothers with availability to participate in the study were included. Exclusion criteria comprised infants with syndromes and neurological disorders and mothers with cognitive impairment, depression, and drug users. Data were analyzed with the SPSS software, with descriptive statistics and chi-square test. Results: Sixty-two mothers were interviewed in the beginning and 52 at a six-month follow-up. Mothers’ expectations concerning breastfeeding were positive when they listed the benefits to the mother (90.3%) and infant (100%). However, they had difficulties maintaining exclusive breastfeeding and used the baby bottle (75.0%), which most mothers (69.4%) had already acquired before the infant was born. The fact of having a pacifier in the infant’s layette (43.6%) did not influence its use (p=0.820). This also occurred among mothers who said they would not offer the pacifier due to disadvantages to the mother (80.7%) and infant (96.8%). The previous expectation that the pacifier could bring benefits for mother and infant did not affect its use (p=0.375 and p=0.158). Conclusions: Mothers demonstrated prior knowledge about breastfeeding benefits and disadvantages of the pacifiers. However, they changed their view when dealing with the infant and introduced bottles and pacifiers.

“…Com a introdução de novas tecnologias, a inserção da mulher brasileira cada vez mais frequente no mercado de trabalho e a adoção de novos estilos de vida da população do país e do estado paulista houve uma redução notável na importância atribuída a essa prática tradicional 6 . Uma possível justificativa para este padrão observado pode se dar devido a razões sociais, econômicas e culturais 7 .…”

Breastfeeding is a process that promotes an intense interaction between mother and child and affects the nutritional status of the baby. The objective of the present study was to perform a descriptive analysis on the cases of exclusive breastfeeding between Brazil and the state of São Paulo in the period 2010-2015. It is an ecological study, whose data were obtained through the research in the Basic Attention Information System (SIAB). Brazil presented a greater reduction in cases of exclusive breastfeeding in children younger than 4 months than in the stateof São Paulo. A possible justification for this observed pattern can be due to social, economic and cultural reasons, 7 and new approaches are needed that value more effective actions in the promotion, protection of pregnant women and support to breastfeeding.

“…During the development of the low fidelity realistic simulators, the difficulties related by the puerperae related to breastfeeding, and supported by the scientific literature (1) , were taken into account. Along the same lines, one piece of research demonstrates that, in order to develop educational material, it is necessary to look for scientific evidence in the literature, in order to know what other authors had to say about the suggested theme and, above all, to get to know the individuals for whom the material is being developed (2) .…”

Aim: to validate low-fidelity, handmade, realistic simulators as a breakthrough educational technology for guiding puerperae about breastfeeding. Method: this is an exploratory, cross-sectional study, with a quantitative-qualitative approach, divided into two stages: the first stage a piece of applied research and the second a quasi-experimental study. An intentional sample of 24 puerperae staying in rooming-in facilities of a public maternity hospital was taken. The sample was divided into two groups of 12: a control group and an experimental group. Results: the scientific literature showed biological and cultural difficulties regarding breastfeeding, such as with regard to breastfeeding position and holding, cracks in the nipples, the anatomy of the nipple, breast engorgement, the Brazilian culture of "weak milk"/not enough milk and cramping related to breastfeeding. Breastfeed handling simulators were created and validated to facilitate the learning process. Conclusion: the use of simulators as educational technology has a positive impact on the sample, reducing the difficulties related to breastfeeding. Practical implications: the use of these simulators was ground-breaking, having low production and maintenance costs, also in terms of changing the concepts and practices of the puerperae involved concerning the breastfeeding process.
