Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale

The scale consists of a total of 14 items that evaluate breastfeeding self-efficacy. The scale is a 5-point Likert-type scale, and the items are evaluated by rating from 1 = "not sure at all" to 5 = "always sure". The lowest score that can be obtained from the scale is 14, the highest score is 70; higher scores indicate higher breastfeeding self-efficacy.

Time frame
36th week of pregnancy and postpartum

Secondary outcomes

LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnostic and Assessment Scale

LATCH focuses on 5 features to be able to take appropriate action in cases where intervention is necessary for the mother. L (Latch): Baby's latching on to the breast, A (Audible Swallowing): Baby's swallowing sound is heard, T (Type of Nipple): Type of nipple, C (Comfort of Breast/Nipple): Mother's comfort with the breast/nipple H (Hold/Position): Defined as the assistance the mother needs to place her baby in the breastfeeding position. Each of the criteria is evaluated as "0, 1, 2" points. The maximum score that can be obtained is 10, and a high score from the evaluation and diagnosis scale means that breastfeeding success is high.

Time frame
It will be applied to women in the control and experimental groups after birth.
