Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators will conduct an early postpartum professional breastfeeding intervention to postpartum women who are intended to breastfeed newborn babies to improve breastfeeding outcomes.


Clinical Trial Description

The aim of this study is to determine whether early post-partum professional breastfeeding support improves breastfeeding outcomes.

The primary hypotheses are:

1. Exclusive breastfeeding rates at 1, 2, and 3 months will be increased among mother-infant pairs who receive professional lactation support or telephone follow-up support (intervention groups) when compared with those who receive usual post-natal breastfeeding support (control group);

2. The rate of any breastfeeding (predominant or partial) at 1, 2, and 3 months will be increased among mother-infant pairs in the intervention groups when compared with those in the control group;

The secondary hypotheses are:

1. The overall duration of exclusive breastfeeding will be increased among mother-infant pairs in the intervention groups when compared with those in the control group;

2. The overall duration of any breastfeeding (predominant or partial) will be increased among mother-infant pairs in the intervention groups when compared with those in the control group. ;
