This study examines maternal satisfaction with social support and its association with socioeconomic factors in mothers of preterm infants during the first year of life. A quantitative, cross-sectional analysis was conducted with 42 mothers of preterm-born infants from a follow-up service at a large public hospital in Brazil. Data were collected using the Social Support Satisfaction Scale (SSSS) and a socioeconomic questionnaire. Statistical analyses revealed less reported social support from family and friends among single women with less education and less income. These findings highlight the impact of socioeconomic factors on maternal social support, providing valuable insights for policymakers and healthcare professionals to design targeted interventions
