Summary

This trial tests whether adding audio recordings of successful breastfeeding stories and video-based education to routine hospital teaching can improve breastfeeding self-efficacy and success in first-time mothers. About 70 primiparous mothers will be randomly assigned to receive either the extra educational materials or standard care alone. Researchers will measure breastfeeding confidence and performance shortly after birth and again at one month postpartum.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Audio recordings of successful breastfeeding stories and video-based breastfeeding education, added to routine hospital education
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer a simple, low-cost way to help first-time mothers breastfeed more successfully and confidently.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial, so results may not apply broadly. The added education may not significantly improve outcomes over standard care.
