Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the psychic-emotional state from stories of women of the group of orientation
and support of the Exclusive Breastfeeding Clinic in a maternity hospital in a city of the State of Espírito Santo, Brazil.
Individual interviews with 32 mothers had been carried through in the first pediatric consultation, and during the discussion
groups developed monthly, we carried out the non participant observation technique. The study developed the
accompaniment of the mother-babies binomials during the 3 first months after birth. The results stand out the importance
that the group of multidiscipline orientation and support to exclusive breast-feeding has for the mothers and their families,
characterizing itself as space of both affective and informative exchanges, a place to solve doubts, to share experiences,
to build friendship bonds, providing better psychological and emotional conditions for women, children and their families.
