NCT ID NCT07543029
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether early kangaroo mother care (skin-to-skin contact) helps first-time mothers breastfeed more successfully and feel more confident as moms. About 112 mothers who had a vaginal birth will be randomly assigned to receive either standard care or extra kangaroo care sessions during the first 24 hours after birth. Researchers will measure breastfeeding success and how mothers see themselves in their new role.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, low-cost way to improve breastfeeding success and help new mothers feel more confident in their role.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 112 participants, so results may not apply to all mothers. The intervention is behavioral, so benefits may vary widely.
