Summary
This study tests whether a four-session educational program during pregnancy can help first-time mothers breastfeed exclusively for three months after birth. The program focuses on building confidence and problem-solving skills. 160 pregnant women will either receive the program or standard care, and their breastfeeding rates will be compared.
