Hands-On breastfeeding class before delivery may stop painful nipples
NCT ID NCT06770595
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a 40-minute hands-on breastfeeding class during the third trimester can prevent sore nipples and breast engorgement in first-time mothers. 100 pregnant women will be split into two groups: one gets the class plus an e-booklet, the other gets only the e-booklet. Researchers will check breastfeeding technique, nipple pain, and engorgement after birth.

- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could provide a simple, drug-free way to prevent common breastfeeding problems for new mothers.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with no blinding, so results may not be conclusive or widely applicable. The intervention is brief and may not work for everyone.
