ROCHA, Andréa Lyra Arnozo da et al. The teaching-learning process of puerperal mothers on breastfeeding. Rev Cuid [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.2, pp.2165-2176. ISSN 2216-0973. https://doi.org/10.15649/cuidarte.v9i2.510.
Introduction
The puerperal educational practice on breastfeeding should be part of the work of health professionals, including nurses. Within this perspective, the study sought to describe the teaching-learning process related to breastfeeding of puerperal mothers. Materials and Methods: Qualitative research, conducted in 2017, through the sensitive creative method, together with eight puerperal women in the Joint Housing of a municipal hospital in Rio das Ostras, Brazil, whose data were submitted to thematic analysis.
Results
The teaching-learning process was permeated by the influence of women from the family and from other pregnant women, in addition to health professionals, particularly hospital nurses. In these relationships, learning was about the importance of breastfeeding, quality of breast milk, positioning of the baby, and breast management. Mediation of knowledge occurred through prior experiences, as well as professional guidance through verbal and demonstrative strategies.
Discussion
Hospital nurses are the professionals who frequently guide and support breastfeeding.
Conclusions
It is necessary to advance in educational actions in health on the theme, especially from the previous knowledge of the puerperal women.
