OBJECTIVE:To analyze time trend in breast-feeding (BF) and exclusive breast-feeding (EBF). METHODS:Data from a monitoring system, based on surveys conducted during the National Immunization Campaign in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Southeastern Brazil, in 1996, 2000, 2003and 2006 analyzed. Study population was comprised of 19,044 children younger than one year of age, who were present in vaccination stations. A probability cluster sample (vaccination stations), self-weighted and representative of the population of children younger than 12 months of age (<12), was studied for each year. A structured questionnaire with closed questions about the child's diet at the moment of the study and maternal sociodemographic characteristics was applied. The BF and EBF indicators proposed by the World Health Organization were adopted. RESULTS:BF<12 increased from 61.3% to 73.4% between 1996 and 2006. Similar trend was observed in all age groups analyzed. EBF in children <4 and <6 months of age (EBF<6) increased from 18.8% to 42.4% and from 13.8% to 33.3%, respectively. Improvements in BF>6 and EBF<6 were found in all categories of all maternal sociodemographic variables. For EBF<6, the disadvantage observed in women with a lower level of education in 1996 and in women who worked in 1998 was not completely overcome by 2006.CONCLUSIONS: BF and EBF increased in the period studied, independently from child age group and maternal sociodemographic characteristics. The differences found among women in distinct sociodemographic situations were not completely overcome.

“…Despite the beneficial effects of EMB, widely disseminated in scientific literature, the early interruption of this practice remains one of the most important public health problems (5) in Brazil, indicating the need for constant monitoring of child nutrition indicators, identification of determinants, intervention proposals and new studies for public health planning and for the definition and redirecting of maternal-infant policies, in the national as well as local context (6) .…”

“…In Brazil, despite improvement, studies have shown that only 35% of infants enjoy exclusive breastfeeding during the first four months of life (therefore less time than the recommended target of six months of exclusive breastfeeding) 1,7,8 . The literature on determinants of feeding practices in the first year of life (including breastfeeding and its duration) has emphasized the psychosocial factors involved in this process, particularly a possible association between postpartum depression and interruption of breastfeeding 9,10 .…”

This study evaluates the association between postpartum depression and interruption of exclusive breastfeeding in the first two months of life. Cohort study of 429 infants < 20 days of age to four primary health care units in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Interruption of exclusive breastfeeding (outcome) was defined as the introduction of water, other types of liquids, milk, or formulas or any food. Postpartum depression was assessed using the Edinburgh Post-Natal Depression Scale. Associations between variables were expressed as prevalence ratios (baseline) and risk ratios (follow-up), with their respective 95% confidence intervals, estimated by Poisson regression with robust variance. Children of mothers with postpartum depressive symptoms were at higher risk of early interruption of exclusive breastfeeding in the first and second months of follow-up (RR = 1.46; 95%CI: 0.98-2.17 and RR = 1.21; 95%CI: 1.02-1.45, respectively). Considering mothers that were exclusively breastfeeding at the first month, postpartum depression was not associated with interruption of exclusive breastfeeding in the second month (RR = 1.44; 95%CI: 0.68-3.06). The results indicate the importance of maternal mental health for the success of exclusive breastfeeding.
