This qualitative analysis
has searched
the primiparae women¡¯s
experiences around the practice of breastfeeding after weaning their children
under the age of six
months. After their free and deliberate consent, 17 mothers, met at the
maternal and child health service
of the Sendwe¡¯s Hospital of Lubumbashi in D.R. Congo, constituted
the population of our analysis. The semi-directive interview allowed us to
collect data. Primiparae women
have encountered negative experiences during breastfeeding stage. This has
definitely influenced them to stop breastfeeding of their children at six months. The
analysis has
found that these mothers were not supported nor adequately informed or prepared
at the process of giving birth. In the practice of breastfeeding, the
subjective perception of their health state and sensations perceived have involved them to stop breastfeeding.
This seems more
superficial and unsubstantial reasons; however, they have led to stopping
breastfeeding.
