To talk about her study on grandmothers' breastfeeding support for mothers, Dr Jane Grassley talked to Hamish Holewa for IPP-SHR Podcasts. It was found that a grandmother's own infant feeding practices influenced mothers' decisions to initiate and continue breastfeeding. Open encouragement and support from grandmothers assisted a mother's decision to breastfeed and helped protect the mother from ongoing justification of breastfeeding. This was particularly important in cultures that have sanctions against public breastfeeding and unfriendly breastfeeding workplaces. It was also noted that some grandmothers felt that breastfeeding was a barrier to bonding with the grandbaby, including, being able to feed the baby, allowing the baby to stay overnight and concern for the mothers well being. It was also shown that there were numerous myths that persisted in relation to breastfeeding; including: concern that a mother is not making enough milk, that exclusive breastfeeding did not deliver all dietary requirements and that breastfeeding "just did not work anymore". Practical implications suggests including grandmothers in breastfeeding conversations with health professionals, encouraging grandmother's to tell stories about their experiences, and providing additional information to grandmothers.
