Abstract
We evaluated 229 cases of children who were born in the first half of the year. These cases refered to the ten health centers in Rasht in 1995. There were 116 (50.66%) boys and 113 (49.34%) girls in this research. We saw that 96 boys were feed through the breast milk in the first four months, and 20 boys were feed through the formula and we saw 102 girls out of 113 were feed through the breast milk and 11 girls were feed through the formula. According our growth chart we understood that:
1) New separate chart is needed for breast fed Infants. 2) Breast fed infants were leaner than their counterparts, the slower growth and lower energy intake of the breast fed infants were associated with normal accelerated development and they were less morbidity from infectious illness.
We had shown that breast feeding has increased about fifth fold. It is due to promotion of breast milk feeding with the university and health centers. The rule of Islamic religion was an important factor in the promotion of breast feeding. Finally the most important factor which was effective in the loss of breast milk, is insufficient breast milk that it is misapprehension.
