To describe the characteristics of women according to the reported number of benefits of breastfeeding and to verify its association with the duration of this practice until the sixth month of the child's life.
This was a qualitative and prospective observational study performed with postpartum mothers in two stages (n=78, and after six months n=62). Generalized linear models were used to identify the profile of the mothers as well as to determine the factors associated with the duration of breastfeeding until the sixth month of the child's life.
The profile of women who reported fewer benefits (≤3) was: younger age (p=0.008), with lower schooling (p<0.001), single (p=0.02), unemployed (p=0.04) and who attended prenatal care at the public health service (p=0.01). The analysis of the interaction of these factors indicated that women who had only completed elementary school and who attended prenatal care at the public health service (p<0.001) or privately (p=0.01) reported fewer benefits. Factors such as: level of education, marital status, previous education/training about breastfeeding, place of prenatal care and the reported number of benefits were not associated with the duration of breastfeeding until the sixth month of the child's life.
The lowest number of breastfeeding benefits was reported by women with elementary education and who undewent prenatal care in the public health system or privately. The number of reported benefits was not associated with the duration of this practice until the age of sixth months of the child.
根据母乳喂养益处的报告数量描述妇女的特征，并验证其与母乳喂养持续时间至儿童 6 个月的关系。
这是一项定性和前瞻性观察研究，在两个阶段对产后母亲进行（n=78，6 个月后 n=62）。使用广义线性模型确定母亲的特征，并确定与母乳喂养持续时间至儿童 6 个月的相关因素。
报告益处较少（≤3）的妇女特征为：年龄较小（p=0.008），受教育程度较低（p<0.001），单身（p=0.02），失业（p=0.04），并在公共卫生服务机构接受产前保健（p=0.01）。这些因素的相互作用分析表明，仅完成小学教育并在公共卫生服务机构（p<0.001）或私人机构（p=0.01）接受产前保健的妇女报告的益处较少。教育程度、婚姻状况、以前关于母乳喂养的教育/培训、产前保健地点和报告的益处数量等因素与母乳喂养持续时间至儿童 6 个月之间没有关系。
受小学教育且在公共卫生系统或私人机构接受产前保健的妇女报告的母乳喂养益处最少。报告的益处数量与该实践持续至儿童 6 个月的时间无关。
