Resumo: Objective: To identify the factors that lead mothers to discontinue exclusive breastfeeding prior to the sixth month. Methods: Qualitative study conducted with 12 mothers attending circles of conversation as a dialogic strategy of health education to provide an exchange of experiences about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding. This study was held in a Primary Health Unit in Tauá, Ceará, Brazil, during March 2015. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and submitted to thematic analysis, from which two categories emerged: “Early weaning due to weak milk”; “Early weaning due to family interference and cultural issues”. Results: The interviewees recognize the importance of breastfeeding; nevertheless, they are influenced by relatives and cultural issues which, in addition to the lack of orientation, make them believe that their “milk is weak”, leading to early weaning. Conclusion: Family influence, cultural issues and lack of support have posed a negative impact to exclusive breastfeeding prior to the sixth month of life. It is, therefore, the health professionals’ responsibility to invest in subjects related to breastfeeding promotion, protection and support, which must be discussed in a comprehensive way, with individuals, family and all segments of the society.

Métodos: Estudio cualitativo realizado con 12 madres que participaban de las charlas como estrategia dialógica de educación en salud para promover el cambio de experiencias sobre la importância del amamantamiento materno exclusivo. El estudio se realizo en una Unidad Básica de Salud de Tauá/CE durante el mês de marzo de 2015. Los datos fueron recogidos a través de uma entrevista semiestructurada, analizadas de manera temática de la cual surgieron dos categorías: “Destete precoz porque la leche es débil” y “Destete precoz debido la interferencia familiar y cuestiones culturales”. Resultados: Las entrevistadas reconocen la importancia del amamantamiento materno, sin embargo, son influenciadas por los familiares y cuestiones culturales que asociadas a la falta de orientación las hace pensar que su “leche es débil” lo que conlleva al destete precoz. Conclusión: La influencia familiar, las cuestiones culturales y la falta de apoyo han comprometido negativamente el amamantamiento exclusivo antes del sexto mes de vida. De esa manera, compete a los profesionales de la salud investir en las cuestiones de la promoción, la protección y el apoyo para el amamantamiento que deben ser discutidas de una manera integral, individual, familiar y con todos los segmentos de la sociedad.Objetivo: Identificar os fatores que levam as mães a interromper o aleitamento materno exclusivo antes do sexto mês.

Resultados: As entrevistadas reconhecem a importância do aleitamento materno, no entanto, são influenciadas por familiares e por questões culturais, que somadas à falta de orientação, fazem-nas achar que o seu “leite é fraco”, levando ao desmame precoce.
