“…They identified the following experiences as important to continued breastfeeding: adequate support from nurses in the early postpartum period (Dykes et al, 2003;Gill, 2001;Hong, Callister, & Schwartz, 2003), expectations (Hauck & Irurita, 2003;Whelan & Lupton, 1997), a commitment to breastfeeding and help from female relatives (Nelson & Sethi, 2005;Tarrant et al, 2004;Whelan & Lupton), women's perceptions of their milk supply (Dykes & Williams, 1999;Mozingo, Davis, Droppleman, & Merideth, 2000;, and infant breastfeeding behavior (Lothian, 1995 continued breastfeeding, concluded that the infant's behavioral responses to breastfeeding influenced mothers' interpretation of their ability to breastfeed.

Our aim in this Gadamerian hermeneutic study was to understand maternal breastfeeding confidence and its meaning through listening to women's voices describing their experiences within the context of the United States. We asked 13 women, aged 23 to 42 years, who had breastfed a child within the last 2 years to tell us their breastfeeding stories. Women experienced maternal breastfeeding confidence as a dynamic interaction between their expectations, their infant(')s breastfeeding behavior, and sources of support. They described experiences that enhanced or diminished their confidence. Health professionals can use these findings to plan approaches that promote and support maternal breastfeeding confidence.

“…The observed positive effect on postnatal contraception and breastfeeding are two secondary outcomes of key importance. Continued support by the midwife during the antenatal period and immediate postnatal period has been shown to enhance positive attitudes towards breast-feeding among teenage mothers (Nelson and Sethi 2005). A key factor in addition to the mother's mother and the partner, was the role of midwife as the teenage pregnancy coordinator, to enhance breast-feeding (Dykes et al 2003).…”

This retrospective observational study was designed to study the impact of a dedicated antenatal clinic service on obstetric and neonatal outcomes among teenage mothers in the maternity unit of a district general hospital in the UK. Outcomes were measured to investigate improvement in obstetric and neonatal outcomes before, and 12 months after the establishment of dedicated clinic for teenage pregnant women. Significant improvement in the birth weight was observed p = 0.01. A modest decrease in neonatal admission to special care unit by 6% was observed. Rate of spontaneous vaginal deliveries increased p = 0.0009. There was significant uptake of contraception and continuation of breast-feeding in this group of young women (p < 0.0001).

ÖZETDünya Sağlık Örgütü, adölesan dönemini 10-19 yaşları arasındaki dönem olarak tanımlamakta ve dünyada her altı kişiden birinin adölesan olduğunu bildirmektedir. Bu dönemde gerçekleşen fiziksel ve psikolojik değişiklikler, madde bağımlılığı, korunmasız cinsel ilişki ve istenmeyen gebelikler gibi bazı riskli davranışlara neden olabilmektedir. Hem gelişmiş, hem de gelişmekte olan ülkelerde adölesan gebelikler önemli bir sağlık sorunudur. Adölesan gebeliğin risk faktörleri, çok yönlü ve karmaşıktır. Abortus, erken doğum tehditi, gebelikte hipertansiyon, anemi, düşük doğum ağırlığı, konjenital anomali riski, artmış neonatal mortalite ve emzirme problemleri bunlar arasında sayılabilir. Birçok açıdan riskli bir dönemde olan adölesan anneler arasında emzirmeye başlama, emzirmeye devam etme oranlarının az olması da, anne ve bebeğin sağlığını olumsuz etkileyen ve göz ardı edilen önemli sorunlardandır. Düşük sosyoekonomik durum, partner yokluğu, sosyal destek yetersizliği, olumsuz anne ve eş desteği, ağrı, kültürel etkiler, bilgi eksikliği, olumsuz deneyimler, emzirme niyeti, emzirmeye ilişkin tutum ve öz-yeterlilik emzirmeyi etkileyen faktörler olarak belirtilmektedir. Anahtar kelimeler: Adölesan, annelik, emzirme ABSTRACTWorld Health Organization defined the adolescent period between the ages of 10-19 and declared that one out of every six people are adolescent. Physical and psychological changes in this period might cause risky behaviors such as drug abuse, sexual intercourse with no protection and unwanted pregnancy. Adolescent pregnancies are an important health problem in both developed and developing countries. Risk factors of adolescent pregnancy are complicated and miscellaneous. Abortus, threat of premature birth, hypertension in pregnancy, anemia, low weight of the newborn, congenital anomaly risk, increased neonatal mortality and breast feeding problems are some of them. For adolescent mothers, who are in a risky period for many aspects, low rates of starting and continuing breast feeding is another important and neglected problem affecting mother's and newborn's health negatively. Low socio-economic condition, absence of partner, inadequate social support, negative support of parents and couple, pain, cultural factors, lack of knowledge, negative experiences, breast feeding intention, manner regarding breast feeding and self-sufficiency were reported as factors affecting the breast feeding.
