Warm moms, better breastfeeding? new study investigates
NCT ID NCT07331168
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether actively warming mothers during and after a cesarean section can improve breastfeeding success, comfort, and how much milk they feel they have. About 68 first-time mothers having planned C-sections will either receive warming or standard care. The goal is to see if a simple warming bed can make a difference for new moms and their babies.
