Summary
This study tests whether video-based education can reduce anxiety, correct myths, and boost motivation in first-time mothers. Pregnant women between 32 and 36 weeks will receive three educational video modules via WhatsApp alongside routine care. The goal is to see if this technology-supported approach improves their breastfeeding experience.

- What this could lead to
- If effective, this approach could offer a simple, scalable way to support first-time mothers and improve breastfeeding outcomes.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, single-site trial, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention relies on self-directed video watching, which may not suit all participants.
