Summary

This completed study tested a mindfulness-based breastfeeding program for 140 mothers who had a C-section. The program taught topics like breast anatomy, milk production, stress effects, and breastfeeding positions. Researchers measured breastfeeding awareness and attitudes using two scales. The goal was to see if mindfulness training helps mothers feel more confident and continue breastfeeding longer.
