“…The prevalence of EBF in this study is also higher than reported in previous international studies in the USA 16.8% [ 12 ], Brazil 29.8% [ 13 ], Klang Malaysia 32.8% [ 14 ], Peninsular Malaysia 43.1% [ 15 ], Tamil Nadu India 34% [ 16 ], Maharashtra India 36.84% [ 17 ], Al-Hassa Saudi Arabia 24.4% [ 18 ], Egypt 9.7% [ 19 ], Nigeria 31% [ 20 ], Western Tanzania 58% [ 21 ], Harar Eastern Ethiopia 51.8% [ 10 ], Arbaminch Southern Ethiopia 46.5% [ 22 ] and Mida-Woremo district of Northern Ethiopia 58.3% [ 23 ]. Some previous studies have identified higher rates of exclusive breastfeeding, including research at an urban health centre in Western India 61.5% [ 24 ], Zahedan Iran 98% [ 25 ] and the Goba district of South East Ethiopia 71.3% [ 26 ].…”

BackgroundExclusive breastfeeding is the most widely known and effective intervention for preventing early-childhood deaths. Optimum breastfeeding practices can prevent 1.4 million deaths worldwide among children under five every year. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding and associated factors among mothers who have an infant less than six months old in Debre Markos, Northwest Ethiopia.MethodsA community based cross-sectional study was conducted from April 1 to 30, 2013. A simple random sampling technique was used from a list of all mothers who had an infant less than six months old obtained from the health extension workers (HEWs) registration book in all kebeles (neighbourhoods) of the city. A total of 423 mothers with infants less than six months old were included in this study. Data were collected using questionnaires administered at interview. Both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were carried out to identify factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding.ResultsThe prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding during the seven days before the survey was 60.8% (95% CI: 55.8%, 65.8%). Those mothers who were unemployed [AOR = 1.98 (1.21, 3.22)], received breastfeeding counseling during antenatal care (ANC) [AOR = 2.44 (1.53, 3.91)], received infant feeding counseling during postnatal care (PNC) [AOR = 5.03 (3.04, 8.31)], didn’t give prelacteal feeding [AOR = 3.44 (1.88, 6.33)] and had adequate knowledge about breastfeeding [AOR = 2.57 (1.57, 4.19)] were more likely to practice EBF than their counterparts.ConclusionsAlthough the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding was lower in the study area than international recommendations, rates were higher than found in other studies. Recommendations for improving exclusive breastfeeding include better support for working mothers through extending maternal leave and establishing work-site day care centers for infants, expanding the urban health extension program so that more pregnant women and mothers can be taught about appropriate infant and young child feeding practices and how to express their milk, thereby increasing their breastfeeding knowledge.

“…(1) But this reality in Brazil is still far from being achieved, since the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding in the first 6 months is only 41%, according to the latest survey conducted in the Brazilian capitals and the Federal District (DF). (2) Breastfeeding (BF) is considered, worldwide, one of the fundamental pillars for promoting and protecting the health of children and its social impact can be quantified through the reduction of medical consultations, hospitalizations and medical treatments, since the child in EBF has lower risk of becoming ill. (3) The obstacles to breastfeeding are numerous, but generally the allegations to its abandonment involve myths and misinformation, even among women with higher socioeconomic status, which confirms the importance of guidance and interventions from healthcare professionals in supporting nursing mothers.…”

Objective: Evaluate the clinical use of the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale as predictive of early weaning and verify if women who had higher self-efficacy scores breastfed for longer periods. Methods: Cohort study developed with 100 postpartum mothers. Research instrument used: Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form. The feeding was monitored on the 7th, 15th, 30th, 45th and 60th day, by phone. Results: The mean duration of exclusive breastfeeding was 53.2 days (SD 14.2). Most mothers (82.3%) had scores compatible with high self-efficacy for breastfeeding, none had low efficacy. There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of mean duration of exclusive and non-exclusive breastfeeding, with the scores of medium and high efficacy. Conclusion: Findings did not enable the confirmation of the use of the scale as a predictor of risk of early weaning. No relation was observed between higher scores of high efficacy and longer periods of exclusive breastfeeding. ResumoObjetivo: Avaliar o uso clínico da Escala de Autoeficácia na amamentação como preditiva do desmame precoce e verificar se as mulheres que obtiveram maiores escores de autoeficácia amamentaram por mais tempo. Métodos: Estudo de coorte com 100 puérperas. Instrumento de pesquisa utilizado: Breastfeeding Self-Eficacy Scale-Short Form. O aleitamento foi monitorado no 7º, 15º, 30º, 45º e 60º dia, por telefone. Resultados: A média de aleitamento materno exclusivo foi de 53,2 dias (DP 14,2). A maioria das mães (82,3%) obteve escores compatíveis com alta autoeficácia para a amamentação, nenhuma apresentou baixa eficácia. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa na comparação da média de tempo de aleitamento exclusivo e não exclusivo, com os escores de média e alta eficácia. Conclusão: Os resultados não permitiram confirmar a utilização da escala como preditiva de risco de desmame precoce. Não se observou relação entre maiores escores de alta eficácia e maior tempo de aleitamento materno exclusivo.

“…A oferta de leites artificiais prejudica a criança quanto ao seu crescimento e desenvolvimento, podendo levá-la tanto à desnutrição quanto à obesidade. 3,4 Segundo a OMS e o Fundo das Nações Unidas para a Infância (UNICEF), o AME previne cerca de 6 milhões de mortes infantis por ano. Para a saúde do RN, o leite materno (LM) traz vários benefícios, tais como: proteção contra infecções gastrointestinais, respiratórios e desnutrição.…”

Objetivos: Investigar os fatores relacionados ao desmame precoce antes dos seis meses de vida. Métodos: Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória, descritiva de abordagem quantitativa, baseada em questionário semiestruturado, com amostra de 52 mulheres com filhos de 0 a 6 meses de vida que não estavam mais em aleitamento materno exclusivo (AME), pertencentes às Estratégias de Saúde da Família urbanas do município de Santo Antônio do Monte, centro-oeste de Minas Gerais. Resultados: Apontaram mães jovens, casadas, primíparas, inseguras, com gravidez não planejada, realização das consultas de pré-natal periodicamente, desmame do AME entre o quarto e quinto mês de vida da criança. Conclusão: As atividades laborais, as crenças quanto ao leite materno ser fraco ou insuficiente para o bebê e a má interpretação do choro do recém-nascido estão entre as causas encontradas para o desmame precoce. Salienta-se a implementação de estratégias e ações educativas que priorizem a resolutividade quanto aos fatores destacados, e que, especialmente, busquem melhorar o vínculo com esse público.
