Abstract

In the publication „Guiding principles for complementary feeding of the breastfed child“, the WHO
advocates that exclusive breastfeeding during the first six months after birth is essential for the
development of the newborn. Of particular interest is the possible difference between academic and
non-academic women, which has not been studied so far. First, however, there is the question of how
children can be breastfed when the professional situation of mothers has changed considerably due to
a changing image of women in society. Women are making more and more different decisions, which
are increasingly developing within the framework of an emancipated image of women that is constantly
changing. 4, 6, 7, 14
For this purpose, Dr. med. Friederike Harrich interviewed mothers about their situation and evaluated
them in a large-scale study. This study was compared with two other studies in order to pool the data.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14
This study, as part of a larger series of studies, addresses the distribution of mode of delivery of
academically educated mothers vs non-academically educated mothers and presents the differences
and similarities depending on the mother‘s level of education.
