Abstract:
:To examine breastfeeding outcomes and factors associated with breastfeeding <8 weeks among preterm infants. Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) data for seven sites from 2004 to 2007 were used. Logistic regression was used to identify correlates of short breastfeeding duration among preterm infants. Among preterm infants, short breastfeeding duration (<8 weeks) was associated with maternal age ≤19 years (OR 1.75; 95 % CI: 1.22, 2.50), infant birth weight between 1,500 and 2,499 g (OR 1.29; 95 % CI: 1.01, 1.65), maternal obesity (OR 1.52; 95 % CI: 1.17, 1.98), smoking (OR 2.61; 95 % CI: 1.87, 3.63), and hypertension (OR 1.34; 95 % CI: 1.06, 1.69). Receiving a phone number for breastfeeding help (OR 0.59; 95 % CI: 0.44, 0.78) and not receiving a gift pack with formula (OR 0.64; 95 % CI: 0.47, 0.87) were associated with decreased odds of short duration. Speaking with a provider about breastfeeding prenatally was associated with increased odds of short duration (OR 1.75; 95 % CI: 1.33, 2.30). These findings strengthen the hypothesis that infant and maternal health are determinants of breastfeeding preterm infants and suggest a need to provide additional support to smokers, obese and hypertensive women, and mothers of infants with birth weights between 1,500 and 2,499 g, to help them sustain breastfeeding. Support from hospitals, such as providing a telephone number for breastfeeding help, and not providing a gift pack with formula, can also make a difference. These practices should be adopted by hospitals.
