在儿科医生,产科医生,家庭医生和护士之间进行的邮件调查的结果,并在医院管理人员进行的附属调查的结果。根据调查结果,母乳喂养是由医生倡导的;然而,这个话题并不总是由医生发起的,因此母亲受到其他来源的影响。人们在不同程度上提倡补充食品和维生素,但这并不一定符合目前的营养知识。医生愿意就母乳喂养的问题向母亲提供咨询,并认为有必要进一步鼓励母亲进行更多的母乳喂养或更长的母乳喂养。母亲在怀孕期间、住院期间和产后都应该有机会尽可能多地了解喂养方法。产科医生可以更早地与母亲讨论喂养方法,并在讨论中扮演更积极的角色。在医院里,选择母乳喂养的母亲可以得到帮助,从出生后立即开始,尽可能多地花时间与婴儿在一起,以获得成功的母乳喂养经验。产后,医生可以鼓励成功的母乳喂养和母乳喂养的时间较长,不鼓励早期开始补充剂和固体食物。医生、护士和卫生保健机构采取的这些积极行动最能促进母乳喂养的增长趋势。
The results of a mail survey conducted among pediatricians, obstetricians, family practitioners, and nurses, and results of an adjunct survey conducted among hospital administrators are presented. According to the findings, breast-feeding is advocated by physicians; however, the topic is not always initiated, so the mother is influenced by other sources. Supplementary foods and vitamins are advocated to varying degrees and not necessarily in keeping with present knowledge about nutrition. Physicians are willing to counsel mothers regarding problems with breast-feeding and feel that further physician encouragement is necessary for more breast-feeding or longer breast-feeding. Mothers should have an opportunity during pregnancy, while they are in the hospital, and postnatally to learn as much as they can about feeding methods. The obstetrician can initiate earlier discussion with the mother on feeding methods and can assume a more aggressive role in initiating this discussion. In the hospital, a mother who chooses to breast-feed can be assisted in having a successful breast-feeding experience by spending as much time as possible with her infant starting with the period immediately following birth. Postnatally, physicians can encourage successful breast-feeding and breast-feeding of longer duration by not encouraging the early initiation of supplements and solid foods. The increasing trend in breast-feeding can best be facilitated by these positive actions taken by physicians, nurses, and health care facilities.
