    Abstract:
    We studied the different motivations mothers had for choosing a particular mode of nursing at the University Hospital in Limoges. An anonymous questionnaire was distributed to all mothers who hat delivered between January 1 and April 30, 1992. It was apparent that the medical team did little to promote breast-feeding or to counteract negative attitudes. The results of this study, together with a review of the literature were used to determine conditions for encouraging breast feeding.
