Objective: To describe the factors involved in the breastfeeding process of preterm infants hospitalized at a Neonatal Unit recorded in a “Baby diary” completed by the mother.
Method: This is a descriptive, prospective and longitudinal study that uses a quantitative approach. The study was conducted between September 2010 and June 2011 with 38 mothers of preterm infants hospitalized at a Neonatal Unit.
Results: There was prevalence of mothers aging between 20 and 34 years old and that have partners. These mothers had eight or more years of school education, family income betwen one and five mininum wages, and no previous experience in breastfeeding other children. The frequency of use of the diary was equal or greater than three times per week. The average daily breast pumpings was equal or greater than three and the duration of the breast pumping was between 16 and 30 minutes. The average expressed breast milk volume was equal or less than 100 mL per week.
Conclusion: The success of breastfeeding of preterm infants at the Neonatal Unit depends on several associated factors and continues to be a challenge to mothers, healthcare professionals and families. However, strategies to promote registering on baby diraries seems to be adequate ir order to maintain breastfeeding and to guide interventions from nurses in the assistential practice.
