The present study aims to determine the knowledge, attitudes and views of mothers regarding infant feeding, breast milk, wet-nursing, milk kinship and human milk banks.
This descriptive cross-sectional study was composed of 1042 mothers who delivered at two different hospitals in Turkey.
Almost half of the participating mothers, 49.9%, agreed with the establishment of alternative HMBs in Turkey. Only 7.7% of the mothers in this study expressed views in favour of the establishment of Western-style HMBs. Approximately half of the mothers (42.4%) indicated that they were against the establishment of any kind of HMBs in Turkey. Only 9.2% of the mothers in this study stated that they would volunteer to donate their breast milk to the Western-style HMBs, and only 6.9% of the mothers approved obtaining milk from this type of HMB. Finally, 44.2% of the mothers stated that they would donate their breast milk to the alternative HMBs, and 31.9% of the mothers approved obtaining milk from this type of HMB.
This is the first study conducted among mothers in a Muslim community about issues such as infant feeding, breast milk, wet-nursing, milk kinship and HMBs. The majority of the mothers in this study are against the establishment of Western-style HMBs, whereas they have a more positive response to an alternative HMB when their religious concerns are relieved.
本研究旨在确定母亲们关于婴儿喂养、母乳、哺乳、奶亲关系及母乳库的知识、态度和观点。
这项描述性横断面研究由在土耳其两家不同医院分娩的1042名母亲组成。
参与研究的母亲中,近一半(49.9%)同意在土耳其建立替代性母乳库。本研究中只有7.7%的母亲表示支持建立西式母乳库。约一半的母亲(42.4%)表示反对在土耳其建立任何类型的母乳库。本研究中只有9.2%的母亲表示愿意志愿向西式母乳库捐赠母乳,只有6.9%的母亲赞成从这类母乳库获取母乳。最后,44.2%的母亲表示愿意向替代性母乳库捐赠母乳,31.9%的母亲赞成从这类母乳库获取母乳。
这是在一个穆斯林社区的母亲中开展的关于婴儿喂养、母乳、哺乳、奶亲关系及母乳库等问题的第一项研究。本研究中的大多数母亲反对建立西式母乳库,而当她们的宗教顾虑消除后,对替代性母乳库的反应更为积极。
