About this trial
It was aimed to evaluate the effect of the Peer Supported Breastfeeding Education Program given during the antenatal period on the breastfeeding knowledge and attitude levels, breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding levels of postpartum women. For this purpose, the hypotheses created in our study are as follows.
1. H1: Breastfeeding knowledge and attitudes of mothers in the PABEP group are significantly higher than those in the control group. 2. H1: Breastfeeding proficiency levels of mothers in the PABEP group are significantly higher than those in the control group. 3. H1: Breastfeeding success of mothers in the PABEP group is significantly higher than the control group, according to the breastfeeding evaluation results.

Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy
It is a scale consisting of 33 items developed by Dennis (1999). The scale prepared as a five-point Likert type; (1) I never trust myself, (2) I don't trust myself very much, (3) I sometimes trust myself, (4) I trust myself most of the time, (5) I always trust myself. As the total score on the scale increases, breastfeeding self-efficacy also increases. The lowest score is 33 and the highest score is 165.
Time frame
Research data will be collected during training before birth and at 1 and 4 weeks after birth.Secondary outcomes

breastfeeding success
The scale consists of six questions and scoring is based on mothers' answers to the questions. The first question is about the baby's starting state of feeding (deep sleep, sleepy, calm-awake, crying). This question is not included in the scoring. The next four questions are about searching and the baby's sucking behavior. Each question is evaluated between 0-3 points and the highest score is 12. The score range in effectively fed babies is 10-12 points. Babies who breastfeed quite successfully when encouraged are given 7-9 points and are considered moderately effective. Babies who do not start feeding upon warning, do not seek nutrition, or breastfeed for short periods are given a score of 0-6. In the last question, mothers record their feelings during feeding (very satisfied, satisfied, not very satisfied, not satisfied). This question is not included in the scoring and is evaluated separately.
