Breastfeeding education based on the theory of psychosexual development is important as it addresses the social and psychological significance of childhood and the impact of early childhood experiences on later social anxieties and psychosexual well-being. However, no theory-based breastfeeding education given to the mothers was found in the literature. Therefore, the study aimed to investigate the effect of breastfeeding education on infant feeding attitudes and knowledge of primiparous mothers, in line with the theory of psychosocial development.

The population of the study consisted of preterm infants and their mothers who received treatment and care in the NICU between the dates of the study. The study sample consisted of 70 preterm infants (35 experimental, 35 control) and their mothers who met the research criteria.
The period until the 42nd day after birth is called the postpartum period by the World Health Organization (WHO) Especially the first week of the postpartum period is the transition period both physiologically and psychologically, and the period when postpartum problems are at the highest level.This study was planned as a two-group control and e-mobile application in order to determine the effect of e-mobile training given in the postpartum period on postpartum comfort and breastfeeding self-efficacy.
Background: Expressing breast milk in cases where breastfeeding is interrupted is important for infants to be fed breast milk however, many factors can affect mothers' breastfeeding experience, such as feeding attitudes and the level of social support. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship mothers' breast milk expression experience between infant feeding attitudes and perceived social support level. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in the postpartum and lactation unit of a city hospital in Istanbul, between September-November 2022. The study included 455 women who were volunteering to participate in the research, 18 years of age or older, in the 0-6 months postpartum period, having a living baby, continuing to breastfeed, and expressing breast milk at least once after birth. Data were collected with Mother-Baby Introductory Information Form, Breast Milk Expression Experience Measure (BMEE), Iowa Infant Feeding Attitude Scale (IIFAS), and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). The data were analyzed using the SPSS-21 statistical software package. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Which characteristics affect mothers' breast milk expression experiences, infant feeding attitudes, and perceived social support levels in the early postpartum period? - Is there a relationship between mothers' experiences of breast milk expression and their infant feeding attitudes and social support levels in the early postpartum period?
KULEA-NET is a mHealth intervention that will improve knowledge, self-efficacy, and intentions related to exclusive breastfeeding (EBF). These factors have been demonstrated to have a positive influence on breastfeeding (BF) initiation and duration among African American/Black (AA/B) mothers. In the long term, KULEA-NET has great potential to achieve increased BF initiation and EBF rates among AA/B mothers and as a result, improved maternal and infant health outcomes.
Malnutrition and non optimal breastfeeding is one the the major cause of high infant morbidity and mortality in a developing country like Pakistan. In addition low women literacy rate,socioeconomic factors, cultural limitations,poor excess to information, misconceptions and other factors has led to low breastfeeding rates. There has also been a shift over time from home based care and delivery to antenatal care from skilled providers and deliveries within health care facilities. Which is an opportunity to strengthen breastfeeding counselling to mothers starting from health facility where mothers come for antenatal visits and by utilising other modes of counselling within the health facility (which have weak or non-existing structured breast feeding program) and when mothers home till 6 months as a continuous support. Women from different backgrounds have opportunity to get excess to complete information on benefits,misconceptions and myths of breastfeeding which is understandable and acceptable by her, to enable her to make an informed decision to initiate early, exclusively breastfeed and to continue breastfeeding till 2 years or beyond. The intervention group will receive interventions, will include a family member as a support for participant in her breastfeeding, 2 sessions of counselling on breastfeeding during participants antenatal visits,sharing of readable booklet & video messages on Whats App application of cell phones about breastfeeding, hands on training by nurse after delivery, and continuum of support by multiple visits of lady health workers when the mothers home till 6 months. It will also include training of doctor,nurse & lady health workers involved in the intervention. The content of intervention will contain benefits & ideal breastfeeding practices, latching & feeding positions,expression & storage of breast milk, associated myths & difficulties with solutions in breastfeeding. The control group participants will receive the routine support on breastfeeding given in hospital and in the community. Feasibility, acceptability, cost effectiveness, sustainability and effectiveness of the intervention will be assessed.
Breast milk is a natural, unique, ideal food that best meets the nutritional needs of babies for healthy growth and development. Studies clearly demonstrate the short and long-term benefits of breast milk to the baby, mother, family, environment, economy and country with strong evidence. There are many factors that affect breastfeeding. One of these factors is breastfeeding techniques. Proper breastfeeding technique includes holding the baby well and attaching the baby to the breast correctly, and ineffective breastfeeding techniques, incorrect position and holding style cause poor breastfeeding outcomes in mothers. There are many different breastfeeding positions such as cradle position, cross cradle position, football grip position (armpit position), side-lying breastfeeding, biological breastfeeding. It is of great importance to consider in detail the superiority of these positions over each other. Reveal the advantages of different positions will help increase breastfeeding rates and long-term breastfeeding rates. The aim of this study is to reveal which position is more effective in terms of the effects of biological breastfeeding and armpit (football) breastfeeding positions on breastfeeding self-efficacy, breastfeeding success, breastfeeding duration and postpartum comfort. The Hypotheses of the Study Hypothesis 0 (H0): There is no difference between biological breastfeeding and armpit (football) breastfeeding position on breastfeeding success, breastfeeding self-efficacy and postpartum comfort in primiparous mothers. Hypothesis 1 (H1): Breastfeeding success of primiparous mothers in the biological breastfeeding position is higher than in the armpit (football) breastfeeding position. Hypothesis 2 (H2): Breastfeeding self-efficacy of primiparous mothers in the biological breastfeeding position is higher than in the armpit (football) breastfeeding position. Hypothesis 3 (H3): Breastfeeding duration of primiparous mothers in the biological breastfeeding position is higher than in the armpit (Football) breastfeeding position. Hypothesis 4 (H4): Primiparous mothers have higher comfort in the biological breastfeeding position than in the armpit (Football) breastfeeding position.
