Materials and Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional, and prospective study was conducted with 250 adolescent mothers in the puerperium service at María Auxiliadora Hospital. A questionnaire consisting of 32 questions was applied. Absolute and relative frequencies of the study’s qualitative variables and measures of central tendency for quantitative variables were calculated. Results: 68.8% of the adolescents were aged between 17 and 19 years. 60.4% were cohabiting, followed by 30.8% who were single. 39.6% had incomplete secondary education, while 34% had completed this level. 56.4% were engaged in household chores. 49.6% had a good level of knowledge, 32% had a regular level, and 18.4% had a poor level. Regarding myths, 77.6% of the adolescent mothers believed that nipple shape and breast size are important for breastfeeding; 73.2% thought that drinking a lot of milk increases breast milk production; and 70% believed that breastfeeding causes pain, among other myths described in the study.

To determine the relationship between non-nutritive sucking habits and deciduous occlusion in children with exclusive breastfeeding from rural communities in Huancavelica, 2017. Methodology: This was a descriptive, cross-sectional, prospective, observational study at a descriptive level. The sample consisted of 260 children aged 3 to 5 years with exclusive breastfeeding. The Hidalgo M. instrument (2015) was used to collect information, and an intraoral examination was conducted on each child. Results: Over 75% of children had the habit of finger sucking, and no relationship was found between non-nutritive sucking habits and the sex of the children. No relationship was observed between pacifier use and the presence of developmental spaces (p=0.033). There were significant differences between the age of children and canine Class II and Class I relationships (p=0.015). Children who used pacifiers presented adequate overjet, showing a relationship between these variables (p=0.034). No association was found between the duration of the habit and the duration of breastfeeding (p=0.259). There were no significant differences between bite problems and sex, age, or pacifier use (p=0.8, 0.6, 0.4). Conclusion: There is no relationship between non-nutritive sucking habits and deciduous occlusion in children with exclusive breastfeeding.
