    AbstractA cross-sectional study was conducted on 477 poor children aged 12-59 months in order to investigate their breastfeeding pattern, taking into account the poverty level of their families. Although the population living in extreme poverty had the same pattern of breastfeeding as the rest of the poor population, the former group should still have priority in breastfeeding promotion programs, since they are the population who benefit most with breastfeeding.
