RESUMO:

Introduction: The exclusive breastfeeding is a vital practice for the mother and its child, since it fights malnourishment and extreme hunger at the first years of life, and, in many cases, it is responsible to ensure the child survival. It is estimated that 823,000 fatalities would be avoided each year in relation to five years old children if the breastfeeding were universally amplified. Objective: To comprehend the livingness of mothers regarding the interruption of exclusive breastfeeding. Method: Qualitative research, underpinned at the straussian aspect of the Grounded Theory. The research scenario was a Health Unit that acts in the field of Family’s Health Strategy in the city of Caicó (Rio Grande do Norte). 19 subjects took part in the study, distributed on three sample groups: the first one was composed of thirteen mothers, the second, by three health professionals and the third, by three relatives. The data gathering occurred between April and September of 2018, using an in-depth interview, with the support of memos and diagrams. An analysis of the data was made concurrently with the data gathering, in three stages of codification: open, axial and of integration. The software NVivo^® 11 was used to organize data during the analysis process. The Symbolic Interactionism was adopted as theoretical frame. Results: From the analytic process, emerged a phenomenon or central category of the research, entitled as ”living the multidimensionality of the interruption of exclusive breastfeeding”, sustained by three categories that promotes a driving movement for the central phenomenon, accordingly to the paradigmatic model’s components: conditions –“ living the myths and taboos related to exclusive breastfeeding”; “receiving influence from the family nucleus and from health professionals regarding exclusive breastfeeding”; “not feeling protected by the Brazilian laws”; actions/interactions – “interrupting the exclusive breastfeeding” and “developing mammary complications”; and consequences – “introducing artificial milk and complementary breastfeeding before the sixth month of life” and “experiencing negative feelings and sensations in front of the interruption of exclusive breastfeeding”. Conclusion: The current study highlighted that the exclusive breastfeeding is a complex phenomenon, which transcends biological dimensions, being influenced by cultural factors, interference of family and health professionals that provides direct care to the mother. Moreover, the lack of law coverage that protects exclusive breastfeeding contribute for the non-adhesion of this practice, which awakens negative feelings.
