“…Boccolini et al 20 observed this same trend in Rio de Janeiro. Cesarean section influences the postponement of the first breastfeeding 40,41 due to several factors, including those related to anesthesia and the surgical procedure itself 20 . The prevalence of cesarean delivery in this study was high (61.5%), and also higher than that observed in Brazil (55.4%) 41 , which indicates the need to review the current professional practice that elects caesarean section as a routine procedure, since Brazil accounted for 15% of the unnecessary cesareans occurred globally in 2008 42 .…”

ABSTRACT:Objective: To identify factors associated with breastfeeding in the first hour of life. Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted among mothers and children under one year of age, who attended the second stage of the polio vaccination campaign in the Federal District, Brazil, in 2011. The sample was composed of 1,027 pairs of mothers and children. Breastfeeding in the first hour of life was considered as the dependent variable; and the independent variables were: socio-demographic characteristics of the mother, prenatal, delivery and postpartum care, reference to physical or verbal violence/neglect during delivery, and children health. Unadjusted and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) were used as measures of association, calculated by Poisson regression. Results: The prevalence of breastfeeding in the first hour of life was 77.3%. Inadequate prenatal care (PR = 0.72), cesarean section (PR = 0.88) and no access to rooming-in after birth (PR = 0.28) were factors that interfered negatively in breastfeeding in the first hour of life. No factor was associated with breastfeeding in the first hour of life for mother and children. Conclusions: Factors related to health services such as prenatal care, type of delivery and postpartum rooming-in interfered with breastfeeding in the first hour of life, indicating that health services, as well health professional practices were major determinants the breastfeeding in the first hour of life.

“…Several factors with mixed evidence have been associated with delayed LS-II: cesarean section, emergency cesarean section, prolonged labor stage II, stress, maternal age, diabetes, obesity, ineffective breastfeeding, and preonset supplementation. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] The goal of this study was to determine the influence of birth events and maternal/infant factors on LS-II marker breastmilk Na + among primiparous breastfeeding mothers.…”

Objective: This study identified birth events and infant/maternal factors related to breastmilk sodium (Na + ) among primiparous mothers. Subjects and Methods: Data were collected in a larger study on perceived insufficient milk among 252 breastfeeding mothers at a Canadian, French-speaking university maternal care center. Birth events and infant and maternal factors were collected at 48 hours, 2 weeks, and 6 weeks after birth and were analyzed with bivariate and regression analysis. Results: Presence of gestational diabetes increases the risk of an elevated breastmilk Na + level at 48 hours, and increased number of breastfeeds (mean = 8.91, SD = 3.77) lowers it, indicating lactogenesis II was initiated. Conclusions: Breastfeeding frequency impacts initiation of lactogenesis II, which in turn influences duration of breastfeeding exclusivity. Therefore feedings should be promoted as soon as possible after birth and as frequently as eight to 12 times a day.

“…3,4 This may be due to delays in mother/infant skin-to-skin contact, mother's post-surgery physical complications, and effects of anesthetics. 5−7 In addition to mode of delivery, other factors that may influence breastfeeding initiation and duration include challenges encountered during nursing, availability of support systems, mother's socio-cultural and economic situation, and the recommendations and attitudes of family, peers, and healthcare professionals.…”

Background: We compared early breastfeeding practices, including initiation, exclusivity, and intensity among women who had an unplanned caesarean section (c-section), a planned c-section, vaginal induced delivery, and a vaginally but not induced delivery. Methods:This was a retrospective study involving secondary data analysis using the Infant Feeding Practices Study II, a longitudinal national survey, which followed women from pregnancy to 1 year postpartum. Data were obtained from the prenatal, neonatal and 2-month surveys for 2541 mothers and their infants. Descriptive statistics and chisquare analysis were conducted to identify any associations between mode of delivery and maternal characteristics, breastfeeding patterns in the first two months of infancy, prenatal breastfeeding attitudes, sources of breastfeeding information and reasons for not initiating breastfeeding. Results:Women with a planned c-section had a significantly lower breastfeeding initiation rate (80%). Further, they were least likely to report a clinician's support for breastfeeding (40.2%) and more likely to disagree with benefits of breastfeeding (26.3%). Those with vaginally non-induced deliveries were least likely to receive breastfeeding information during the postpartum period from lactation consultants (56.5%), while women who had a planned c-section were less likely to receive breastfeeding information from relatives/ friends (48.9%). Conclusion:Findings suggest that breastfeeding practices vary considerably by mode of delivery and this should be taken into consideration when offering lactation services and information to women. Women may need encouragement from family members and clinicians in initiating breastfeeding as well as adequate breastfeeding support through month 2 postpartum.
