ÖZET
 Amaç: Bu çalışmada, emziren annelerin toplumsal alanda emzirme ile ilgili görüş, tutum ve davranışlarının belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Tanımlayıcı tipte yürütülen araştırma, Temmuz 2021-Nisan 2022 tarihleri arasında emzirme deneyimi olan ya da hâlen emziren toplam 310 anne ile yürütüldü. Annelerin demografik ve obstetrik verileri ile toplumsal alanda emzirme ile ilgili görüş, tutum ve davranışları tanımlayıcı istatistikler kullanılarak hesaplandı. Bulgular: Anneler, ortalama 28,74±5,28 (minimum: 19-maksimum: 43) yaşında, %58,1'i ilköğretim mezunu, %83,2'si ev hanımı, %48,1'i 2 çocuğa sahipti. Katılımcıların %29'unun eş ve anneleri dışındaki bireylerin yanında emzirmekten çekindikleri ve başka odada emzirdikleri belirlendi. Araştırmaya dâhil olan annelerin %45,7'si, daha önce topluma açık bir alanda emziren bir kadın gördüğünde bir takım olumsuz duygular (garipseme, utanma, ayıplama vb.) hissettiğini ifade etti. Annelerin %30,6'sı toplumsal alanlarda emzirmenin normal olmadığını, %47,7'si sadece emzirme odalarında emzirilmesi gerektiğini, %88,1'i toplumsal alanda emzirirken memenin mutlaka örtülmesi gerektiğini, %65,2'si örtü olmadan emzirilen çocuk görmekten rahatsız olacağını düşünmektedir. Araştırmamıza katılan annelerin %17,4'ü restoranda bebeğini emzirdiğini, %56,5'i emzirirken görüldüğünde utanacağını, %49,4'ü toplumsal alanlarda sadece emzirme odalarında emzirebileceğini, %95,5'i emzirirken çekilmiş fotoğrafını bir sosyal medya hesabında asla paylaşmayacağını ifade etti. Sonuç: Çalışmamızdaki annelerin toplumsal alanda emzirme davranışını kabul etme oranı düşüktür. Ayrıca anneler restoran, park ve otobüs gibi toplumsal alanlarda emzirme davranışını oldukça nadir gerçekleştirmektedir.
