This is a cross-sectional study, from a matrix study ENFAC, with 213 children between 12 to 15 months. Milk consumption was evaluated using R24h. We analyzed the association of the independent variables with the outcomes breastfeeding, consumption of cow's milk and consumption of infant formula. The infants were categorized in three groups: breastfeeding (BF), complemented breastfeeding (CBF) and not breastfeeding (NBF). The mean intake of macronutrients and calcium adjusted for energy, and average month weight and length gain was compared among groups. It was observed that 50.2% of the children were breastfed and 56.1% of breastfed children consumed another milk. There was a negative association between maternal education and consumption of cow´s milk (p = 0.046), however positive association with the amount of milk ingested for infants (p = 0.005). Energy intake of the CBF group was higher than the BF and NBF (p < 0.001). Moreover, the CBF group showed average month weight gain greater than BF (p = 0.017). Calcium intake was higher in the NBF group (p < 0.001). It was concluded that half of the infants consumed breast milk and it was found a high consumption of other milks for breast-fed infants. Children of mothers with a lower level of education consumed cow's milk more often; however, the amount ingested was lower. Those in complemented breastfeeding presented higher energy consumption and greater weight gain. / O objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar os fatores associados ao aleitamento materno e ao consumo de leite de vaca e fórmula infantil. Trata-se de estudo transversal, parte do estudo matriz ENFAC, com 213 crianças entre 12 a 15 meses. O consumo de leite foi avaliado pelo R24h. Analisou-se a associação das variáveis independentes com os desfechos aleitamento materno, consumo de leite de vaca e consumo de fórmula infantil. Os lactentes foram categorizados em três grupos: aleitamento materno (AM), aleitamento materno complementado (AMC) e não estava em aleitamento materno (NAM). As médias do consumo de macronutrientes e cálcio ajustados pela energia, e do ganho de peso e do comprimento médio foram comparadas entre os grupos. Observou-se que 50,2% das crianças eram amamentadas e 56,1% delas consumiram outro leite. A escolaridade materna apresentou associação negativa com a frequência do consumo de leite de vaca (p = 0,046), porém associação positiva com a quantidade ingerida desse leite pelos lactentes (p = 0,005). O consumo energético do grupo AMC foi maior que do AM e NAM (p < 0,001). Ainda, o grupo AMC apresentou ganho de peso mensal maior que o AM (p = 0,017). O consumo de cálcio foi maior no grupo NAM (p < 0,001). Conclui-se que o leite materno foi consumido por metade dos lactentes e, constatou-se alto consumo de outros leites por crianças amamentadas. As crianças de mães com menor escolaridade consumiram em maior frequência o leite de vaca, entretanto a quantidade ingerida foi menor. Aqueles em aleitamento materno complementado apresentaram maior consumo energético e maior ganho de peso mensal.
