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.

What this could mean

Mindfulness-Based Breastfeeding Programme (behavioural intervention)
What this could lead to
If effective, this program could help new mothers feel more aware and positive about breastfeeding after a C-section.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center study with no blinding, so results may not apply widely. The program's benefits beyond standard support are uncertain.
