This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a video-assisted breastfeeding education program for primiparous pregnant women. The intervention is designed to improve breastfeeding motivation, reduce breastfeeding myths, and decrease state anxiety related to breastfeeding. Pregnant women receiving antenatal care at Family Health Centers in Iğdır Province will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. Participants in the intervention group will receive structured video-based breastfeeding education in addition to routine care, while the control group will receive routine antenatal and postnatal breastfeeding education only. The findings of this study are expected to provide evidence regarding the effectiveness of technology-supported breastfeeding education in promoting positive breastfeeding-related outcomes among first-time mothers.
