• W2237618019 abstract "The benefits of breastfeeding are well known. It has been shown that HIV is transmitted through breast milk. The HIV epidemic is threatening exclusive breastfeeding in South Africa. It is important that mothers make the right infant feeding choice. There are three basic infant feeding methods available for HIV infected mothers namely; breastfeeding, replacement feeding or formula feeding and heat treatment of breast milk. There are many risk factors for the transmission of HIV through breast milk. Exclusive breastfeeding may reduce the risk of mother-to-child-transmission, compared with mixed feeding. This can only take place when breastfeeding is done safely and not mixed with other food or drinks. There are many factors that influence a mother's decision to breastfeed, for example personal, social, cultural factors, facilities, environmental factors, knowledge about breastfeeding, mass media and friends. There are also many sources of information about infant feeding methods. The aim of this study was to determine which factors influence the decision on the early infant feeding choice of women who delivered at the Lower Umfolozi District War Memorial Hospital in Empangeni, Kwazulu-Natal. This may help to understand what factors health professionals should focus on in promoting appropriate infant feeding methods. A structured questionnaire was completed by a 100 women and focus group discussions were held with 22 women who delivered at the Lower Umfolozi District War Memorial Hospital. Most of the mothers (72%) did choose breastfeeding, and 58% of these mothers intended to breastfeed for only six months. The majority of the women (97%) received counseling about their infant feeding method, mostly from a health care worker at the clinic. One-third of the women (33%) were influenced by health care professionals on deciding on their infant feeding method and 44% of the participants indicated that no-one influenced them and that they decided themselves. In the focus group discussions the fear of transmission of HIV through breast milk was stated as an important reason why mothers should choose replacement feeding. In conclusion the most important results are that significantly more" @default.
