The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is a nutrition assistance program in the U.S. WIC served 2.5 million eligible Hispanic women, infants, and children under the age of five in 2021, which is WIC's largest racial/ethnic group. However, limited research has been conducted to understand Hispanic WIC participants' perceptions of WIC breastfeeding recommendations and their breastfeeding decisions. For this qualitative study, we interviewed 18 of these pregnant and postpartum WIC participants on their experiences and decision-making processes related to breastfeeding. Hispanic cultures and home country norms were identified as prominent influences on breastfeeding decisions, along with perceptions of WIC's breastfeeding support. These results can help the WIC program to refine its breastfeeding education to better meet the needs of Hispanic participants.
妇女、婴儿和儿童特别补充营养计划（WIC）是美国的一项营养援助计划。2021 年，WIC 为 250 万名符合条件的西班牙裔妇女、婴儿和五岁以下儿童提供服务，这是 WIC 最大的种族/族裔群体。然而，对于理解西班牙裔 WIC 参与者对 WIC 母乳喂养建议的看法及其母乳喂养决策的研究有限。在这项定性研究中，我们采访了 18 名怀孕和产后的 WIC 参与者，了解他们与母乳喂养相关的经历和决策过程。西班牙裔文化和原籍国规范被确定为对母乳喂养决策的重要影响因素，同时也影响了对 WIC 母乳喂养支持的看法。这些结果可以帮助 WIC 计划改进其母乳喂养教育，以更好地满足西班牙裔参与者的需求。
