- Abstract
Objective: to identify the deviations in body weight at 12 and 24 months of life and their association with the breastfeeding practice. Method: a cohort study conducted with children treated in the Primary Care services of a municipality in northeastern Paraná, Brazil. The data were collected from March to October 2020 and referred to 401 children's first two years of life. Data analysis was performed by means of chi-square and logistic regression tests. Results: it was verified that 66.3% and 44.6% of the children presented adequate body weight at 12 and 24 months, respectively; with adequacy values of 93% and 83% for exclusive breastfeeding, of 53.6% and 29% for breastfeeding, and of 64.6% and 32.3% for those who were not breastfed. Among the children with inadequate weight there was 60% prevalence of excess weight. Conclusion: these results may come to subsidize nurses' performance during follow-up of the children's growth and development in the Primary Health Care scope.
