Filter by:Musculoskeletal postural issues stemming from infant care positions can exert a significant impact on the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. These positions can induce mechanical alterations in the spine's natural curvature, potentially resulting in long-term deformities in postnatal women such as forward head posture (FHP), ultimately contributing to physical disability over the long term.so, The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Pilates exercises on FHP in breastfeeding women.
The study is a randomised controlled trial designed to determine the effect of the Mindfulness-Based Breastfeeding Programme on maternal breastfeeding awareness, breastfeeding attitudes and breastfeeding continuation among mothers who have given birth by caesarean section. The study will evaluate the effectiveness of the Mindfulness-Based Breastfeeding programme using the "Mindful Breastfeeding Scale" and "Iowa Infant Feeding Attitude Scale". The research will use stratified and simple randomisation methods. Research data will be collected from mothers who gave birth by caesarean section at the gynaecology clinic of the Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University Health Application and Research Center of between April 2024 and December 2025.
The goal of this observational study is to explore the impact of pregnancy depression on infant feeding, and to explore the two-way relationship between postpartum depression and infant feeding. Participants will be asked to finish questionnaires four times (24 weeks of pregnancy to before delivery, 2 month postpartum, 4 month postpartum, 6 month postpartum).
The goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of social transfers on exclusive breastfeeding rates in São Paulo, Brazil. The main research questions are: 1. Are social transfers effective at increasing exclusive breastfeeding rates 2. Are social transfers effective in prolonging the duration of exclusive breastfeeding 3. What are the long-term impacts of social transfers for breastfeeding on child health and development Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: 1) control, no social transfer 2) non-conditional social transfer at 6-months postpartum, and 3) conditional social transfer at six months postpartum; conditional upon the mothers exclusive breastfeeding status. All participants receive education about the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding and current international recommendations. Researchers will compare the intervention groups to the control group to see if social transfers are effective at increasing exclusive breastfeeding rates at six months postpartum.

Breastfeeding is one of the most effective, health economical interventions to promote health and reduce illness in both mothers and children. However, breastfeeding in Sweden is under threat. An increasing number of newborns will miss out on its benefits because lack of lactation support for mothers with breastfeeding difficulties, which is the main reasons for breastfeeding cessation. About 110,000 mothers breastfeed every year but the prevalence is decreasing. Many mothers are dissatisfied with the support they receive from health care. Maternal infant-directed singing could be an effective, person- and family-centered, cost-effective, self-care intervention to reduce stress and breastfeeding difficulties in new mothers as well as increasing oxytocin, which is an important hormone for lactation and well-being. This project evaluates the effect of a self-care intervention involving maternal infant-directed singing during breastfeeding on maternal stress, experiences, and breastfeeding rates up to six months postpartum among mothers with breastfeeding difficulties. The mothers are randomized to standard care and infant-directed singing or control with standard care. The primary outcome is the proportion of breastfeeding four weeks after the intervention. 260 mothers will be included in the project, which will be conducted during 2024-2025, and data will be analyzed and presented in 2026. A data management plan will ensure that all research activities are well organized.
During Chinese mothers' doing the month, they are often housebound and find it difficult to attend group support or seek help during the first month postpartum which is the critical period in sustaining exclusive breastfeeding and at high risk of weaning. This can adversely affect their general well-being, and are associated with stress, anxiety and postnatal depression. Thus, mothers have expressed the need for real-time, real world, personalized support that allow them to get immediate breastfeeding support, helps in overcoming the challenges and subsequently improve exclusive breastfeeding. The aim of the proposed study is to assess the effectiveness of an ecological momentary intervention (EMI)-based breastfeeding intervention in improving exclusive breastfeeding outcomes and to inform clinical practice and services for breastfeeding mothers in Hong Kong. Such interventions have been considered as a rising shift from traditional model of care towards an e-technology based health model that may improve exclusive breastfeeding duration globally.
In the literature, music plays an energizing, soothing, stimulating and awakening role for the newborn, and at the same time, music has the potential to wake up a lethargic and withdrawn baby and calm a crying, restless baby. In addition, it is stated that relaxing music in the early postpartum period supports breastfeeding behaviors of mother and baby. It is stated that lullabies positively affect the newborn's relaxation, falling asleep, and mother-baby communication. however, it facilitates sleep due to its monotonous, emotional and repetitive melody structure, slow tempo and relaxing effect. The sound called white noise is a humming, monotonous and constantly used sound that suppresses the disturbing sounds coming from the environment and has a calming feature. In the literature, it has been found that white noise played to infants with colic reduces crying. The aim of this study is to determine the effects of lullabies and white noise music played during breastfeeding of the newborn on newborn stress, breastfeeding success and mother's comfort. This study was planned as a randomized controlled trial with term newborns 24 hours after birth.
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.
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.
