There are two groups in the study. Web-based education was provided to mothers in the intervention group (n=30). No intervention was applied to the mothers in the control group (n=30) other than the outpatient clinic routine of the hospital. "Qualitative interview form, Parent-infant Introductory Information Form, Quality of Life Scale and Generalized Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale" were used. The research process had two stages; in the first stage, qualitative data was collected and after qualitative interviews with mothers, the content of the web-based training was created in line with the needs of the mothers. In the second stage, quantitative data were collected, and a web-based training program was applied to the intervention group and an outpatient clinic routine to the control group.
