Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Women in the immediate puerperal period, considered the period between the first and tenth day after childbirth; Puerperas with at least six hours postpartum, since before that moment it would be inopportune to perform data collection, judging that the first hours after childbirth are characterized by emotional stress for the mother, making it even more difficult due to the physiological changes that occur; Single term full term puerperal women (gestational age ? 37 weeks, <41 weeks), since the clinical conditions and the environment in which the preterm newborn is hospitalized are factors that may hinder breastfeeding, in addition to that in some situations it is necessary to initiate the use of milk formulas in the child's diet; Bereaved children 12 years of age or over, considering the Statute of the Child and Adolescent, Law No. 8,069 / 90; Puerperas with newborns hospitalized in joint housing; Puerperas that are practicing the AM; Puerperas who have at least one telephone contact.
