“…The prevalence of EBF at 4 months was slightly higher than what was reported previously in Spain (Rodríguez‐Pérez et al., 2017), although lower than in other cohorts in northern Spain (51.4%–62.5%) (Oribe et al., 2015; Ramiro González et al., 2018). These differences could be attributable to the methodologies used for data collection, or the scope of BF policies of the different organizations (Díaz‐Gómez et al., 2016).…”

“…In general, low HL was also correlated with lower socioeconomic or employment status (Sørensen et al., 2013). Accordingly, mothers with a higher education level tended to initiate BF more often and were likely to breastfeed for a more extended period of time, compared with their less‐educated counterparts (Ramiro González et al., 2018; Whipps, 2017). Thus, our findings confirm the existence of relationships between educational level and HL, as per other studies (Van Der Heide et al., 2013).…”

“…Several reasons for this early cessation have been identified, including hypogalactia, newborn weight gain below the recommendations, lower maternal age, low socioeconomic status, level of maternal education, BF knowledge, intention, and self‐efficacy BF, an unsupportive working environment, and negative maternal expectations or experience with BF (Oribe et al., 2015; Ramiro González et al., 2018; Vila‐Candel et al., 2019).…”

Aims: Research the association between health literacy (HL) and exclusive breastfeeding at 4-months postpartum. Background: Despite the benefits of breastfeeding (BF), its rates are low worldwide. Among the reasons for abandonment is the level of maternal education. Maternal education has been associated with HL, but evidence between HL and BF maintenance is limited. Design: A cross-sectional study. Methods: The sample compromised 229 nursing mothers recruited from January 2018 to the end of December 2018 at Spain by systematic sampling method. Women were interviewed postpartum on parameters associated with the start and continuation of BF up to 4 months postpartum. Multivariate logistic regression models to explain exposure variables and exclusive BF cessation at 4 months. Results: Approximately 10% of the participants had inadequate HL. Factors associated with early cessation of exclusive BF at 4 months in the multivariate model adjusted using a stepwise variable selection process based on a likelihood ratio test were civil status, risk of pregnancy, type of delivery, limited or inadequate level of HL, and LATCH score at discharge, with an 85.6% area under the ROC curve. Conclusions: Our study offers preliminary evidence regarding the hitherto inconsistent relation between HL and early cessation exclusive BF at 4 months, supporting the conduct of further studies with larger sample sizes and greater statistical

“…In Spain, there is no official system suitable for monitoring breastfeeding [ 20 ], but data extracted from National Health Surveys show that the rate of BF in Spain (including EBF and partial BF) at six weeks has remained relatively stable since 1995, with overall figures of around 71%. BF rates at 3 and 6 months have progressively increased in the past 5 years, reaching 66.5% and 46.9% in 2011, respectively, which is an improvement but still far from the WHO recommendations and the global target for 2025 to reach at least 50% prevalence of EBF in the first 6 months of life [ 21 ]. Data on the prevalence of BF at discharge are scarce, but in a study conducted by Vila-Candel et al, the rates reached 68.2% in 2019 [ 22 ]…”

Expectations and Experiences of Spanish Primiparous Women Who Decide to Breastfeed Their Infants and Strategies for Change in 2020—A Qualitative Study

et al. 2022

To describe the experiences and expectations of Spanish women regarding breastfeeding and the support they receive from healthcare professionals, family, and friends during the breastfeeding journey, A qualitative study using an empirical-phenomenological approach was conducted. Primiparous women that had already given birth were interviewed using a purposive and snowball sampling. In-depth interviews were conducted between 1 January and 30 April 2020. The interviews were transcribed verbatim and analysed using Haase’s adaptation of Colaizzi’s phenomenological method. We recruited 14 women who had recently become mothers. Three major themes describing experiences of infant feeding by maternal lactation were identified—institutional influences, establishing breastfeeding, and cessation of breastfeeding—as well as the following 10 categories: hospital routines, lactation concerns (amount and infant nutrition), antenatal breastfeeding decision, embarrassment to breastfeed, and normalisation of breastfeeding. Prior education and support were identified as key elements in possible breastfeeding support strategies.

“…In relation to maternal age, studies conducted in Spain and United Kingdom show that older mothers remained more likely to initiate breastfeeding and exclusively breastfeed than were younger mothers (Ramiro Gonzalez et al, ; Simpson et al, ). A study analyzing breastfeeding trends in Brazil between 1960 and 2000 found that older mothers whose first child was born in the 70s were at a higher risk of breastfeeding discontinuation than younger mothers were.…”

Objective: To describe breastfeeding trends from 2002 to 2012/2013, and to investigate whether breastfeeding practices differ between mothers of children in public and private schools. Methods: Data were obtained from three school-based cross-sectional studies conducted with 7 to 10 years old children. The total sample was 7264 individuals. Data related to breastfeeding were analyzed descriptively and compared using the chi-square test for heterogeneity or trend. Results: In the 10-year period was observed a decrease in the total percentage of schoolchildren who were not breastfed (12.9%-10.5%) and an increase in the
