This qualitative descriptive study examined the beliefs and experiences of 12 lactation consultants regarding the impact of breast pumps on breastfeeding practices. Interview topics on breast pumps included types and patterns of use, mothers' experiences, and advantages and risks. The lactation consultants reported an increase in the use of breast pumps due to improved marketing, a change in society's view of pumps as a necessity rather than a luxury, and the impact of birthing technology. Reasons given for this increased use were mothers' need to have greater control over the breastfeeding process and to quantify the amount of breastmilk. Concerns were expressed regarding an overdependency on breastfeeding technology by some lactation consultants and mothers.
这项定性描述性研究考察了12位泌乳顾问关于吸奶器对母乳喂养实践影响的看法和经历。关于吸奶器的访谈主题包括使用类型和模式、母亲的经历以及优点和风险。泌乳顾问报告称,由于营销手段的改进、社会对吸奶器看法从奢侈品转变为必需品以及分娩技术的影响,吸奶器的使用有所增加。使用增加的原因是母亲需要对母乳喂养过程有更大的掌控权并量化母乳量。一些泌乳顾问和母亲对过度依赖母乳喂养技术表示担忧。
