“…The risks associated with the addition of liquids and food to the diets of infants under six months old include the following: reduction of breast milk intake (with the consequent reductions of all associated benefits); lower milk production (resulting from reduced milk extraction); higher odds of shortening the duration of breastfeeding; difficulty establishing efficacious breastfeeding; and reduction of the mother's confidence with parallel reinforcement of the negative belief that BM is insufficient ( 1 , 18 - 19 ) . In addition, premature complementary feeding exposes infants to food or device contamination (i.e., bottles and nipples), in addition to the risk of reactions to non-human proteins or food dyes in processed foods.…”

Aim: To assess the concept of exclusive breastfeeding held by nursing women by comparing the period they consider that they perform it and the infants' age at the introduction of additional liquids. METHOD: Cross-sectional descriptive study conducted with 309 women who delivered babies at a university hospital in the interior of São Paulo, Brazil. The data were subjected to descriptive analysis; the variables of interest were crossed using the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test, the chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. RESULTS: Approximately 30% of the women reported having introduced additional liquids before the infants reached aged six months old, while asserting that they were performing exclusive breastfeeding. The following variables were associated with early introduction of liquids: lack of employment (p = 0.0386), younger maternal age (p = 0.0159) and first pregnancy (p = 0.003). CONCLUSION: The concept of exclusive breastfeeding might not be fully clear to women, as they seem to believe that it means not to feed the children other types of milk but that giving other liquids is allowed. These results show that promotion of breastfeeding should take beliefs and values into consideration to achieve effective dialogue and understanding with mothers.

“…Tais fatores aumentam a gravidade do paciente e podem prejudicar o início e a manutenção do AM do prematuro. Adiando o início precoce do AM, o RN permanece mais tempo internado, separado de sua mãe, o que dificulta ainda mais o estabelecimento da amamentação (8,9) .…”

“…Apesar do peso ao nascer não ter apresentado significância estatística com a interrupção do AME nas duas instituições, diferente da IG ao nascer, a qual, no HF, demonstrou relação na primeira quinzena após a alta hospitalar, vale destacar que a prática do AM em prematuros está associada às duas variáveis. A literatura aponta que quanto menor o peso e/ou menor a IG, maior a ocorrência de dificuldade para iniciar e manter a amamentação (9) . Embora nascer menos prematuro seja um fator favorável para o AME, cabe destacar os prematuros denominados tardios, isto é, aqueles que apresentam IG entre 34 e 36 semanas e 6 dias.…”

“…O tempo de internação aumenta a separação da mãe com seu filho e o risco do RN adquirir infecções e demais complicações clínicas. Ademais, prejudica a formação do vínculo mãe-bebê, dificultando, assim, o início e a manutenção da amamentação (3,9) .…”

“…Por outro lado, o tempo de internação prolongado pode acabar influenciando positivamente a amamentação, caso mãe e bebê recebam mais tempo de cuidado e apoio ao AM, de maneira a persistir na amamentação após a alta. Reforça-se a importância organizacional dos serviços para a atenção e apoio à amamentação, que devem ser dados também ao RN pré-termo tardio internado, mas especialmente aos bebês gravemente doentes admitidos em unidades neonatais (9) .…”

Aim: to compare the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) and to verify the factors associated with its interruption in premature infants hospitalized at Baby-Friendly hospitals. Method: this is a comparative study performed with 107 premature infants admitted to the neonatal unit of two hospitals in Paraná. Data were obtained through interviews with mothers and analysis of infant records at hospital discharge and 15 days after delivery. Results: the prevalence of EBF was 29.2% in the University Hospital and 15.3% in the Philanthropic Hospital. At hospital discharge, associations with clinical characteristics of infants predominated, and 15 days after discharge there was a greater association with the socio-demographic characteristics of the parents. Conclusion: the prevalence of EBF, which was shown to be low at the time of hospital discharge in both hospitals, decreased after discharge, reinforcing the need for other strategies, in addition to those provided at Baby-Friendly hospitals, for the promotion and support of EBF in preterm infants.
