The state of breast-feeding in our autonomous community between 1986 and 1993 is reviewed. Two comparable Navarrese neonatal groups from our main maternity hospital are studied. The prevalence of the different types of breast-feeding at the time of discharge from the maternity hospital is compared, as well as monthly rates until the sixth month of life. The following conclusions can be drawn from this study: 1. The category of breast-feeding in Navarra is type 1 of the WHO. 2. Breast-feeding is abandoned in an early and massive way throughout the first six months of life in Navarra, with figures for this practice being undetectable by the sixth month. 3. There are barely any significant differences between the figures for 1986 and 1993.Downloads
