Abstract

The objective of this study was to identify factors that influence early weaning occurrence, including an assessment of the stress experimented by mother's influence on breastfeeding interruption. The study comprised 40 mothers whose children were treated by Research and Dental Treatment Center for Special Patients - FOP - UNICAMP. As an inclusion criterion in the study, weaning should have taken place before the child was six months old. Mother inclusion and data collection occurred, at most, one month after breastfeeding interruption. The participants were interviewed individually, using a particular script, and then, the Inventory of Stress Symptom (ISS) was applied. Results showed a positive relation among mother's coming back to work, demonstration of stress symptoms and decreased milk production with the early weaning.
