1 Breastfeeding Promotion and Support By: Crystal Lindelien, RN, BSN, IBCLC, and Nurse at Options360 in Vancouver, WA and Susan Rutherford, MD, Medical Director at 3W for Women in Seattle, WA and Medical Insights Editor Introduction In order to holistically care for pregnant mothers in the pregnancy medical center setting, we must address the issue of breastfeeding. Many women make the decision to breastfeed early on in pregnancy. (1) Because the World Health Organization and other national, and international, organizations agree that breastfeeding is a public health issue, there have been multiple campaigns to promote breastfeeding. (2) So, where are we now? How are we doing? What affects promotion of breastfeeding and how can we assist in our local pregnancy medical clinics? Pregnancy clinics should have policies in place and train staff to use correct language around breastfeeding. Educational 1 P age
2 materials must be up-to-date. As we follow-up, we can assess how breastfeeding is progressing and make any necessary referrals to other providers. Samantha DeSanto/PicsArt Promotion and Influences To promote means to further the growth or development of something. (3) If we encourage the decision to breastfeed, what strategies do we have in place to support a mom in her choice? The CDC Breastfeeding Report Card from 2016 shows that many mothers are willing to breastfeed. Initiation rates are good, however, studies show that two-thirds of moms wean earlier than their initial goal. (4) The American Academy of Pediatrics (5), American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists (6), and other health organizations (7, 8) recommend exclusively breastfeeding for six months, then continuing to breastfeed while adding solid foods to their baby s diet through the first year of life. There are many racial and economic disparities in breastfeeding duration rates, implying that there is lack of longterm support and/or equal access to breastfeeding education. There are many tools available to help pregnancy medical clinics create breastfeeding policies. Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding and The International Code of Marketing Breast- Milk Substitutes are two models on how to successfully promote breastfeeding. (9) In order to provide education for moms, centers can seek out assistanace from lactation consultants or 2 P age
3 partner with local hospitals to provide breastfeeding classes that are instructor-led and offer hands-on learning opportunities. In my experience, the biggest challenge to pregnancy medical clinics would be the exclusions of formula samples for our patients. Instead of an irregular supply that is not guaranteed long-term, we should direct our patients to community resources like WIC to receive formula. Giving out formula samples has been correlated with overall reduced duration of breastfeeding. (10) Also, babies should not be switched from formula-toformula depending on what the mother has access to, as formula composition and cost varies widely. (11) Finally, teaching bottle-feeding and formula preparation is an important part of prenatal education. Most patients receive ready-to-feed samples in the hospital if they choose formula, and this is the most expensive option that does not usually carry-over into everyday life. As we counsel and ask moms about their feeding preference, it is important to remain objective. Personal experiences don t often make for a well-rounded education. The goal is always for the mother to make an informed decision and help her feel confident in that decision. A good starting point is to ask, What have you heard about breastfeeding? rather than Are you going to breast or bottle feed? Other than being vague (as breast milk can be given in a bottle!), if she answers that she chooses bottle-feeding, this leaves the provider in a position to ask the offensive why not breastfeeding? which can lead to misunderstandings. It is important to listen to our patients, and ask them to extend ( can you tell me more about ) or reflect ( so what I hear you saying is ) so we can gather the necessary information to tailor education. Including fathers and grandmothers in the educational process is also important, as partner support is a major predictor of breastfeeding success. (12) Breastfeeding is normal. We do not need to say, breast is best; we can allow the patient to make her own determination about that after learning the benefits of breastfeeding for mother and baby. 3 P age
4 Conclusion Every woman has a right to make a well-informed decision about how to feed her child. Obstacles can include lack of social or family support, returning to work, and lack of professional advice in the important first few weeks. There is no question among health care professionals that breast milk, especially for the first six months, is the ideal for all babies, especially including preemies. The pregnancy medical clinic has an opportunity to help each woman learn the facts and access the community resources she will need if she chooses to breastfeed. Each clinic should learn about local resources and credible websites to which they can refer patients. This will help women access written evidencebased information, supportive parent-baby groups, lactation consultants with expertise in helping women breastfeed, and also practical assistance. Much like educating a woman about her pregnancy options, we must present breastfeeding in an unbiased, evidence-based way. Every medical clinic, especially one that treats women, should have breastfeeding policies in place, routinely educate staff, make sure materials and prenatal education is up-to-date, and demonstrate good counseling skills when discussing infant feeding goals and obstacles.
