“…Surprisingly, this association has been evaluated in very few studies. Crowcroft et al published similar result but Lucassen et al and Saavedra et al reported contradicting finding [2,3,28] , the latter although benefited from a large sample size, was a retrospective study.…”

“…Among sur veys compared breast fed and for mula fed infants: four found no difference [17,18,26,27] , in three studies the occurrence rates among breast fed infants were slightly higher [2,28,29] , and in one it was slightly lower [22] . When analyzing the presence of association between breastfeeding and the development of colic, reverse causality is an important distorting factor, since the mother of crying children may stop breastfeeding because they relate the condition to feeding or believe that their milk is insufficient or weak.…”

“…In order to prevent this deviation we used the same definition used by Saavedra et al in their cohort study, i.e. children were considered exclusively breastfed if they were receiving only their mother's milk at the onset of colic [28] . Despite observing some trend toward less colic in breast fed subgroup we were not able to reproduce the results of the latter study.…”

Foram entrevistadas 380 mães (92,2%) de crianças menores de 4 meses vacinadas em Campanha deMultivacinação. Para identificação dos fatores associados à situação da criança em relação ao AME, realizaramse análises de regressão logística univariadas e múltiplas. Em AME, estavam 38,0% das crianças; 33,4% consumiram leite de vaca; 29,2%, chás, e 22,4%, água

“…This recommendation is based on the benefits of breastfeeding, such as protection against cramps in the first six months of life, as well as against respiratory and gastrointestinal infections, reducing the need for hospitalizations (2)(3)(4) . Breastfeeding satisfies an infant's nutritional needs, providing a better child development, especially in the first two years of life (5) .…”

Objective: To assess the prevalence of breastfeeding and risk factors associated with weaning among military women in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Southeast Brazil.Methods: A cross-sectional study with a convenience sample including 100 military mothers with children aged up to 24 months. Data were collected on the frequency of breastfeeding, socioeconomic profile, military career, health care, and maternal and child habits. The logistic regression analysis was performed to verify the association between discontinuation of breastfeeding and study variables. MannWhitney and t tests were used to verify the time of exclusive and maternal breastfeeding.Results: Breastfeeding occurred in 94% of cases, with a median duration of 7.2 months. There was no significant difference on breastfeeding among mothers according to military rank, educational level, and operational activities. Multivariate analysis showed a positive association between weaning and the following variables: mother's marital status (married), information on the importance of breastfeeding during prenatal care and use of non-human milk. The variable that was positively related with the longer duration of exclusive breastfeeding was the presence of two previous children.Conclusions: The operational activity did not affect the prevalence of breastfeeding among military mothers. During prenatal care, planning action aiming to improve the information about breastfeeding can improve its prevalence and length in this population.Key-words: breastfeeding/epidemiology; weaning; risk factors; military personnel.

Foram coletados dados sobre frequência do aleitamento materno, perfil socioeconômico, carreira militar, assistência à saúde e hábito materno-infantil. A análise de regressão logística foi realizada para verificação da associação entre a interrupção do aleitamento materno e as variáveis do Prevalence of breastfeeding and factors associated with weaning from breastfeeding among military women estudo. Os testes de Mann-Whitney e t foram utilizados para apresentação do tempo dos aleitamentos exclusivo e materno.Resultados: O aleitamento materno ocorreu em 94% dos casos, com duração mediana de 7,2 meses. Não houve diferença significativa do aleitamento materno entre mães militares de acordo com a patente, o nível educacional e a atividade operacional. A análise multivariada apresentou associação positiva entre o desmame e as variáveis: estado civil da mãe (casada), informação sobre a importância da amamentação no pré-natal e utilização do leite não humano. A variável que se relacionou positivamente com duração maior do aleitamento materno exclusivo foi: mães com dois filhos prévios.Conclusões: A atividade operacional nã...
