Özet |
Breastfeeding is very important for maternal and infant health. With first pregnancies, many pregnant people face obstacles to achieving their breastfeeding goals. We aimed to investigate the outcomes of a breastfeeding education program and nurse-led online breastfeeding counseling system (BMUM) on breastfeeding self-efficacy, attitudes about breastfeeding, breastfeeding problems, breastfeeding frequencies and postpartum depression. This study was a randomized controlled trial. Participants were randomly assigned to the intervention group ( = 36), or control group ( = 36). Assessments were conducted during pregnancy, between 32- and 37-weeks gestation, and on postpartum Day 1, Week 1, Week 3, and 6 months. The means of the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy-Short Form scores, and the Infant Feeding Attitude Scale (IIFAS) scores were similar between the groups at the first assessment ( = 0.733). IIFAS scores in the intervention group were significantly higher in the follow-up measurements on postpartum Day 1, Week 1, Week 3, and 6 months compared to scores in the control group ( = 0.006; = 0.000; = 0.002; = 0.001) Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) scores were similar between the two groups at 1 week ( = 0.678). EPDS scores were significantly higher in the control group on Day 1 and at 3 and 6 months postpartum ( = 0.000; = 0.038; = 0.042). There was no statistically significant difference in breastfeeding problems between the two groups ( > 0.05 across breastfeeding problems examined). The mean values of breastfeeding frequency were similar between groups on Day 1, and significantly higher in the intervention group on follow-up measurements. The results of this intervention appear to promote positive attitudes toward breastfeeding and decrease feelings of postpartum depression. However, further randomized controlled trials are needed to support our outcomes. |
