“…It is a source of protein, lipid, oligosaccharide, vitamins, elements, hormones, enzymes, growth and immune factors that can adjust over time based on infant's need [1]. Breastfeeding protects children against respiratory tract infections, atopic dermatitis, asthma, type II diabetes, obesity, and sudden infant death syndrome [2].…”

The aim of this study was to assess the Breastfeeding status among children aged 21 -27 moths. A cross sectional study was carried out in South Health Center (Tehran-Iran) in 2010. Four hundred 21 -27 month breastfed infants entered the study. This study compared some variables in 2 groups; weaning before and after 22 months. The level of significance was considered P < 0.05. Mean breastfeeding duration and median (either exclusive or combined) were 19.66 ± 6.40 and 22 months. Among all reasons were cited by mothers, some reasons like insufficient breast milk supply (77.9%), infant restless (77.1%), and Mother's reluctance (75.6%) were the most common causes of exclusive breastfeeding cessation. A significant relation was seen between breastfeeding duration and gestational age or birth trauma (P Value = 0.031, P Value = 0.04). Breastfeeding training and First mother-infant skin to skin contact had significant roles on breastfeeding duration (P Value < 0.05, P Value = 0.001, respectively). It seems lots of public health efforts and policy are needed to improve breastfeeding rate in our country.

“…Some observational studies dealing with maternal factors affecting initiation and continuation of breast feeding revealed that mother's age, education or parity did not affect the rate of breast feeding (10), while others noticed that older age, higher maternal education and multi-parity were associated with higher likelihood of breast feeding at 6 months of age (6)(7)(8). On the other hand, maternal employment, cesarean delivery and infant hospitalization are recognized risk factors for early discontinuation of EBF (10,14,15,25).…”

“…Hospital practices and training of health care personnel in accordance with the Baby friendly hospital initiative (BHFI), is another important variable that may have an enormous impact on the rate of EBF (39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44). Several of these factors may be interdependent, for example, delivery of low birth weight may result in neonatal hospitalization, mother-baby separation, and nonobservance to recommendations of BHFI (1,10,17,24,25,(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44). Apart from health care settings, another potential confounder affecting infant feeding patterns in a community are the food-marketing strategies practiced by the multi-national baby formula companies, (the socalled infant food industry), and the degree of control exercised by government legislation on inappropriate formula advertising by these trade giants (45)(46)(47).…”

“…One of the most common reasons for late initiation, unnecessary supplementation and early cessation of breast feeding was a combination of inefficient latch or suckling problems, the perception of having insufficient milk to feed the baby, and providing supplementary feeds to the baby leading to a reduction in milk supply, thus completing the circle (6,7,10,13,25).…”

Context: Exclusive breast feeding, (EBF) protects young infants from infectious illnesses; various factors, including pacifier use, may adversely affect the initiation and duration of breast feeding. Evidence Acquisition: Mesh terms relating to EBF were used to search articles published in PubMed between 2000 and 2014. In addition to studies done outside Iran, articles from Iran addressing the issue of pacifier use in infants that had not been published in the PubMed, but were collected from Iranian journals, were also included. Regarding pacifier use, search was limited to papers published during the last 5 years. Results:Rates of breastfeeding at 6 months were reported to vary from 3% to 95% and EBF from less than 1% to 33% in different parts of the world. A negative association between pacifier use and duration of breastfeeding was reported by 10 authors, with a meta-analysis from Turkey reporting a Risk Ratio of 1.952, 95% CI: 1.662 -2.293. Some researchers, although observed an association between pacifier use and early cessation of EBF, but refuted a causal relationship. Conclusions: As available data on the effect of pacifier use is conflicting, and continuation of breast feeding till 6 months of age is crucial for optimal health outcomes in infants, it is prudent to avoid pacifier use totally or at least till breast feeding is established.

“…Estudo realizado com mães escocesas identificou o emprego e o retorno precoce ao trabalho são fatores associados à menor duração do AM (SKAFIDA, 2012). Outra pesquisa obteve índices menores de duração do tempo de AM em mulheres que trabalhavam fora do que em mães donas de casa na Turquia, sendo, respectivamente, 13,3±5,7 meses e 15,8±6,0 meses (SENCAN; TEKI; TATLI, 2013). No Brasil, intervenções no ambiente laboral no intuito de estimular o AM não parecem ser uma prática adotada por empregadores e empresas, salvo as pausas no trabalho, garantidas mediante legislação específica.…”

ResumoIntrodução: apesar das inúmeras vantagens que o aleitamento materno (AM) produz, a sua manutenção exclusiva, até os seis meses de vida da criança merece atenção, pois pesquisas demonstram que esse índice encontra-se muito aquém do recomendado pelo Ministério da Saúde. Objetivo: investigar a prevalência do AM no Brasil, a partir da revisão de literatura em bibliotecas virtuais em saúde, e identificar os fatores associados ao desmame precoce. Metodologia: utilizaram-se as bases de dados eletrônicos SCIELO e LILACS. Os critérios de inclusão foram artigos publicados em revistas científicas, no período de 2010 a 2013. Utilizou-se a associação da palavra chave "aleitamento materno", com os seguintes descritores: "fatores associados", "prevalência", "frequência", "duração". Resultados: selecionaram-se 17 artigos, dos 184 encontrados. Estudos demonstraram que fatores do meio, como o trabalho materno, fora de casa e o uso de chupetas, estão entre os mais relacionados ao desmame precoce do que os fatores maternos. Além disso, foi demonstrada a baixa prevalência do aleitamento materno exclusivo (AME) durante os seis primeiros meses de vida. Conclusão: tais achados acenam para a necessidade da promoção do aleitamento materno de modo interprofissional, assim como o estímulo à implementação de políticas públicas, de saúde, assistência e trabalho, para o incentivo à prática e à manutenção do AM. Palavras-chave: Aleitamento materno. Prevalência. Fatores associados. Abstract Introduction: despite the numerous advantages that AM produces its maintenance until 6 months of a child's life deserves attention because researches has demonstrated that this index is below when compared to the recommended by the Ministry of Health Objective:To investigate how is prevalence of breastfeeding in Brazil from the survey conducted by the Ministry of Health (2008Health ( -2009

Abstract: Our findings suggest several strategies to increase the duration of breastfeeding, including educating fathers along with mothers, supporting a shared bedroom until the child is 2 years of age, and promoting measures that allow mothers to be with their children during working hours.
