Los objetivos de este artículo son delinear las razones que las mujeres dan para iniciar la lactancia materna, identificar pronósticos únicos de estas razones y el uso de análisis de componentes principales para determinar los factores que influencian a las mujeres en la decisión de amamantar. Se tomaron datos como parte de un estudio extenso longitudinal para investigar el comportamiento y apoyo a la lactancia materna en mujeres del sur de Queensland, Australia. La razón mas comúnmente mencionada para decidir amamantar de 562 mujeres amamantando durante el estudio fue que la leche materna es lo mejor para mi bebe (95.5%), a pesar de que las razones relacionadas con la madre como que amamantar es mas conveniente (84.3%) fue la mas popular. Cuatro componentes significativos: razones relacionadas con la madre, efectos en la salud del bebe, moral e influencias familiares y consejos de otros fueron determinadas después del análisis de componentes principales. Tanto los beneficios en la salud del bebe como conveniencia y otras razones relacionadas con la madre parecen ser factores importante que la mujer considera en la decisión de amamantar.
