ABSTRACT
Introduction. Breast milk is the best feeding source for newborns and infants. Mexico has a 33.6% rate of exclusively breastfeeding. Objective: to evaluate the impact of rooming in on the prevalence of breastfeeding and identify the elements that encourage its practice and abandonment.
Material and methods. Prospective, cohort, analytical, study in mother-infant pair study with a 6 month follow-up. We analyzed the type of feeding, reasons for changing or abandoning breastfeeding; we applied: central tendency measurements, χ
2, Fisher’s exact and t of Student.
Results. In 111 completed follow-up, 75 infants (67.6%) remained exclusively on breast milk, 32 (28.8%) mixed feeding and 4 (3.6%) with proprietary formulas. In the group with 0 to 6 years of schooling we found a RR: 1.29, IC: 1.01, 1.64, P =0.11 [Fisher’s exact].
Conclusions. Prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding: 67.6%. Cause of abandonment: low milk production. The only significant variable, for lactating breast milk exclusively and remain in the follow-up was schooling 0 to 6 years.
