Mitos e crendices do aleitamento materno em três gerações de mulheres da mesma família

O aleitamento materno é um ato único de amor. Apesar da importância do aleitamento materno para a criança, a mãe, a família e a sociedade, estudos mostram que a amamentação sofreu um declínio em todo o mundo, levando a conseqüências desastrosas para a saúde das crianças e das mães. Os mitos e crendices construídos no decorrer da vida interferem no ato de amamentar e estes são passados de geração para geração. Estudos indicam que as avós podem influenciar positivamente ou negativamente na amamentação tanto na sua duração quanto na sua exclusividade. Assim o objetivo deste trabalho foi de levantar o conhecimento de três mulheres da mesma família sobre o aleitamento materno, verificar os mitos e crendices e observar se eles passam de geração para geração. A pesquisa qualitativa e exploratória envolveu 8 famílias, portanto, 24 mulheres. Através de um questionário com questões abertas e fechadas sobre a identificação dos sujeitos, suas gestações e experiências e de uma entrevista semi-estruturada foi possível verificar o conhecimento que cada geração possui. Os resultados mostraram que apesar de alguns mitos e crendices diminuírem conforme passam as gerações, muitos ainda existem e vem sendo perpetuados. Portanto, é muito importante tratar da importância do aleitamento materno com crianças, construindo futuros pais com um conhecimento real eliminando mitos e crendices que são trazidos pelas gerações passadas e que influenciam no sucesso do aleitamento materno.

In this sense, the design of health care, taking care with the focus of the family, it seems highly appropriate in preparing the plan of family orientation, this is defined as a dynamic unity, which, working in harmony, can contribute positively in the treatment of health a sick member
