Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To examine the association of breastfeeding with maternal sensitive responsiveness and infant-mother attachment security and disorganization. METHODS: We included 675 participants of a prospective cohort study. Questionnaires about breastfeeding practices were administered at 2 and 6 months postpartum. At 14 months, maternal sensitive responsiveness was assessed in a 13-minute laboratory procedure...
