Abstract

A descriptive study was carried out on puerperas of the Basic Working Group No 4 of the University Policy Group ‘Asdrúbal López Vázquez’ from July 2004 to 2005, with the aim of measuring the impact on the contribution to exclusively breastfeeding of childbirth and the 4 months of life of the conception product, after having been promoted during the second and third quarters of the gestation to modify its criteria for this type of breastfeeding. The universe studied was 30 women. They were followed through direct observation and application of an interview form at hospital and home. 80 % started breastfeeding immediately after calving, keeping it until the fourth month at 66.6 %. The causes that changed it were maternal (30 %). Family support was 63.3 %. We suggest the continuation of the promotion work, in terms of benefits, beliefs and techniques of exclusive breastfeeding.
