Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study involving 71 mothers of children aged 0 to 24 months. The instrument was a structured interview, being performed by a single professional.

Regarding the use of other forms of ingestion, spoons/cups were the most mentioned by 51 (71.8%) mothers. About 38 (53.5%) interviewers reported that the contents of the bottle mostly used was artificialmilk associated to sugar and farinaceous dough, and 43 (60.2%) confirmed the presence of non-nutritive sucking habits. Conclusion: The practice of breastfeeding in the region was reported by many mothers; however we observed an early introduction of bottles and of other foods, especially artificial milk and/or sugar in the diet of children.
