Summary
This study tests whether teaching mothers a 'laid-back' breastfeeding position (leaning back comfortably) improves their breastfeeding experience and comfort compared to the usual cradle hold. Researchers will train 168 pregnant women during their third trimester and follow them after a planned C-section. The goal is to see if this simple change reduces breastfeeding difficulties and increases maternal comfort.
