What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the effects of hypnobreastfeeding training on high-risk pregnant women, focusing on reducing anxiety, increasing milk production, encouraging breastfeeding, and improving adaptation to breastfeeding after birth. The study aims to support both mother and baby's health by enhancing the breastfeeding experience and boosting the mother's confidence. This research will measure anxiety levels, breastfeeding intentions, perceptions of milk supply, and adaptation to breastfeeding among first-time mothers at risk during pregnancy. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: an experimental group receiving hypnobreastfeeding education and a control group with no intervention. The hypnobreastfeeding training will be provided by the researcher to the experimental group during pregnancy, while the control group will receive standard care. The study involves collecting data through several forms and questionnaires related to pregnancy, anxiety, infant feeding intentions, postpartum experiences, perception of milk sufficiency, and breastfeeding adaptation. Participants will be assessed using various tools including the Anxiety Assessment Scale and Infant Feeding Intention Instrument at one month postpartum. Additional evaluations using the Perception of Insufficient Milk Questionnaire and Breastfeeding Adaptation Scale will occur at 24-48 hours, two weeks, and four weeks after birth. The study will monitor outcomes and gather comprehensive data on the breastfeeding process, maternal anxiety, and infant feeding, concluding with analysis after these time points. The total participation duration spans from late pregnancy through the first month postpartum.
