The main objective of the study is the development and testing of an educational intervention through web based platform, to support exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months. This educational intervention will provide guidance with the help of an audiovisual format, with information and breastfeeding techniques, which mothers can reproduce as many times as necessary.
