Breastfeeding issues of women using tobacco products
KUBÍNOVÁ, Magda
Introduction Breastfeeding is the most optimal and natural way to feed all newborns and infants. It brings many benefits to both mother and baby. Breast milk has an ideal ratio of sugars, fats and proteins, as well as vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Tobacco use should be taboo during lactation. Nicotine, together with other harmful substances, passes into breast milk and thus affects its composition and taste, and has a negative effect on the health of the breastfed baby. Objectives Four objectives were set for this thesis. O1: "Find out the level of awareness of the risks of using tobacco products while breastfeeding." O2: "Find out what problems are associated with smoking while breastfeeding." O3: "Find out what motivates mothers to continue smoking during breastfeeding. O4: "Create an educational material for mothers about the risks of smoking during breastfeeding." Methodology During the implementation of the research survey, a qualitative research survey was used in the form of in-depth interviews with mothers who have experience with smoking tobacco products during breastfeeding. The mothers' answers were recorded in writing and then transcribed into the Microsoft Word program. Subsequent coding and diagram creation was performed using the Atlas.ti program. The research group consisted of eight mothers. The snowball method was used. Results The research shows that smokers mothers knowledge of the risks and problems associated with the use of tobacco products during breastfeeding is unsifficient. Some mothers were unable to identify a single risk. Mothers reported restlessness, insomnia, and frequent crying as the most common problems with smoking while breastfeeding. The reason for continuing to smoke is better for mothers to manage stress, feelings of calm and relaxation, the desire to have a moment for themselves and the associated escape from reality, addiction and bad habit.
