Tóm tắt : | 0We assessed the prevalence of breastfeeding and its determinants and mothers' knowledge and practices towards this issue among 354 women attending primary health centres for their child's 6- month vaccination in the region of Monastir in 2008. The mean age of the women was 30 [SD 5.5] years. Most [90.8%] knew that breastfeeding helped prevent infections in babies but only 38.5% knew that breast milk supplies all infant feeding needs until 6 months of age. While was 94.4% breastfed their babies to start, only 1.9% continued exclusive breastfeeding until 6 months. Main reasons for stopping breastfeeding were perceived breast milk insufficiency followed by return to work. Exclusive breastfeeding over 3 months was associated with skin-to-skin contact [OR = 1.93; 95% CI: 1.016-3.69] and mothers' knowledge about breast milk benefits [OR = 2.8; 95% CI: 1.2-6.6] Early weaning was related to using pacifiers and breast-milk substitutes [OR = 0.17; 95% CI: 0.08-0.36 and OR = 0.14; 95% CI: 0.05-0.38 respectively] 879-885 |
