Abstract:
Breastfeeding is often considered principally a biological issue but success is impacted by the socio-ecological environment of the lactating parent. Identifying current attitudes towards breastfeeding is essential in the effort toward normalizing breastfeeding in communities, including university campuses. The study explored campus community knowledge, awareness, and attitudes about breastfeeding, including available resources and applicable laws on two university campuses in the southern United States. This cross-sectional, self-reporting study utilized the Iowa Infant Feeding Attitude Scale and an adaptation of the Breastfeeding Behavior Questionnaire to survey a convenience sample. Results revealed decreased awareness of protective laws, availability of private lactation space, and insufficient public appreciation of breastfeeding’s unique advantages to both lactating parent and infant as barriers to breastfeeding. These findings will help develop additional breastfeeding strategies to improve university campus community breastfeeding initiatives.

Abstract:
Breastfeeding is unique to a woman, and as many women’s issues, has been relegated to the unrecognized and largely unsupported “women’s work” by our United States health care system and society. Breastfeeding is an important indicator and promoter of health status for both mother and child. Breastfeeding’s potency as a health indicator and protector of health makes it deserving of accurate and comprehensive assessment, documentation, and monitoring. Increasing breastfeeding continuation rates for greater dose-related benefits is part of our national Healthy People 2030 goals, but we are underperforming and haphazard in breastfeeding data assessment and documentation needed to guide our actions in accordance with our goals. Accurate, comprehensive and real-time breastfeeding data is urgently needed in order to assess and manage breastfeeding support resources and actions to increase breastfeeding rates.

Abstract:
Despite active promotion, Uganda reports that 36% of children under 6 months are not exclusively breastfed, impacting infant health. This study focuses on 428 interviews within the Kampala district's informal sector, aiming to understand exclusive breastfeeding practices among mothers with infants aged 0–5 months. Results indicated a 41.1% prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding. Factors linked to this practice included attending antenatal care at least four times, intending to breastfeed exclusively for six months or more, adopting proper breastfeeding techniques, and the age of the infant. Notably, working in lower positions was associated with a lower likelihood of exclusive breastfeeding. Recommendations emphasize the importance of antenatal care in educating mothers about exclusive breastfeeding's advantages, enabling informed decisions. Additionally, enforcing maternity leave benefits outlined in Uganda's Employment Act within the informal sector can support women in practicing exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate encouragement experience on breastfeeding of health professionals, and the support in their hospitals on breastfeeding.A questionnaire on breastfeeding was administered to the obstetricians. pediatricians and nurses at the department of pediatrics or obstetrics of university hospital and private hospital in Seoul and Choong-Chung Province in South Korea. Total numbers of study subjects were 346 (pediatrician 67, obstetrician 41, nurse 238).Data was statistically analyzed according to descriptive statistics. Chi-square test and multivariant analysis.The results were as follows: 1. Most of the respondents (93. 6%) had a knowledge regarding breastfeeding which had more advantage than formula-feeding. But their experience to educate the mother about breastfeeding was very limited(34.8%). The major problems were insufficient concern of healthcare professionals. no trained personnels and lack of education programs on breastfeeding.2. Most of the respondents(82%) had learned breastfeeding management in class at the university. But 2/3 of them had not been educated on breastfeeding management after graduation.3. More than half of the hospitals had no breastfeeding education programs. And they recommended the formula-feeding to the mothers.4. Seventy percent of the respondents recognized that breastfeeding information offered to the mothers in their hospitals might help to increase the rate of breastfeeding. But only 40% of hospital had offered breastfeeding information using pamphlets or brochures.In our study, a majority of respondents had not been educated on breastfeeding after graduation. A personal experience in breastfeeding is known predictor of confidence in breastfeeding. Educational programs may have an effect to change the health professionals behavior. Therefore, it is necessary to assist health professionals in obtaining more knowledge about breastfeeding. Continuing education programs to health professionals should be offered by nation and regional organization.

Abstract:
Exclusive breastfeeding’s coverage is low in Indonesia, because attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioral control fail affecting exclusive breastfeeding intention and behavior. Objectives of research were to formulate exclusive breastfeeding behavior and to explore the relationship of attitude, subjective norm, and behavioral control to exclusive breastfeeding intention and behavior. Mixed method was conducted in rural areas of Karanganyar Regency, Indonesia. Firstly, this was a survey research with attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control being independent variables. Dependent variables were exclusive breastfeeding intention and behavior. Population of research consisted of 873 lactating mothers. Sampling technique employed was multistage random sampling, with 126 lactating mothers being the sample. Data was collected using questionnaire, data analysis using path analysis. Secondly, case study was conducted through in-depth interview, focus group discussion (FGD), document review, and observation. In-depth interview and FGD was conducted with 49 participants: 30 lactating mothers and 19 health workers. Data analysis was conducted content analysis. The result showed that attitude, affective norm, and perceived behavioral control correlated with exclusive breastfeeding intention (ß = 0.09; p = 0.084; ß = 0.09; p = 0.027; ß = 0.51; p <0.001, respectively). Perceived behavioral control and intention correlated with exclusive breastfeeding behavior (ß = 0.08; p = 0.059; ß = 0.09; p = 0.068, respectively). Exclusive breastfeeding behavior model included attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control, and exclusive breastfeeding behavior. Attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control collectively correlated with intention; intention and perceived behavioral perception were direct determinants of exclusive breastfeeding behavior.

Abstract:
Breastfeeding mothers and their babies are simultaneously in the public sphere and hidden from public view. Although social media has the potential to normalize attitudes toward breastfeeding by increasing visibility, Facebook and Instagram maintain an unpredictable censorship policy toward “brelfies”—female breast selfies—which has undermined progress. Combining Iris Marion Young’s “undecidability” of the breasted experience with Brett Lunceford’s rhetoric of nakedness, this article investigates what breastfeeding mothers communicate online via digital images when they expose their breasts. By deconstructing controversial case studies, this article concludes that brelfies have increased breastfeeding’s accessibility and acceptability in the material world.

Abstract:

Breastfeeding has been identified as the perfect source of infant nutrition. Improving the rates and duration of breastfeeding is a global public health concern. Even though facilitators and barriers to successful breastfeeding have been identified in the literature, rates of breastfeeding fall below desired targets. Maternal characteristics such as body image and eating attitudes have been examined with respect to pregnancy and birth outcomes, yet have been less studied with respect to infant feeding choice. Based on existing literature it is possible that poor body image and /or disordered eating may affect the intention to breastfeed. The purpose of this study was to compare body image, eating attitudes, and breastfeeding intention of breastfeeding to non-breastfeeding mothers. A secondary aim was to determine if breastfeeding intention, body image, and/or eating attitudes predicted actual behavior. A two group, comparative design was used to analyze data for first time mothers (n = 66) recruited through a large pediatric practice with multiple offices. Instruments included the 34 item self-report Multidimensional Body Self Relations Questionnaire-Appearance Scales (MBSRQ-AS), the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26), and items from a Demographic and History form. Data analysis revealed that there was no significant difference in the body image or eating attitudes between breastfeeding and non-breastfeeding mothers. Breastfeeding intention was a strong determinant of actual breastfeeding (p = 0.001). Neither body image and/or eating attitudes predicted infant feeding method. It has been well established that personal and contextual factors affect breastfeeding intention. As a result, body image and eating attitudes can have an impact on a woman's health during childbearing. The present study highlights the need for improved instruments designed for pregnant and lactating women that measure the cognitive and behavioral aspects of body image. Subsequently, women who display disordered eating tendencies or body image dissatisfaction during the perinatal period can be identified.

Abstract:
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a autoeficÃcia de mulheres no perÃodo puerperal quanto ao seu potencial em amamentar. Estudo longitudinal do tipo painel. Realizado no perÃodo de maio a dezembro de 2015, o estudo foi dividido em quatro momentos: o primeiro deu-se por contato direto com a puÃrpera realizado na unidade de Alojamento Conjunto (AC) do Hospital Distrital Gonzaga Mota de Messejana, situado em Fortaleza, CearÃ. Os trÃs contatos subsequentes foram realizados por meio telefÃnico com 2, 4 e 6 meses pÃs-parto. A amostra inicial foi de 66 puÃrperas. Os instrumentos de coleta contemplaram dados sociodemogrÃficos, obstÃtricos e da gravidez atual e parto. Para avaliar a autoeficÃcia das mulheres foi utilizada a Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale â Short Form (BSES-SF). Foi constatado que a maioria das puÃrperas apresentou elevada autoeficÃcia no inÃcio da pesquisa (N= 59; 89,4%) e no final (N= 27; 96,4%). NÃo houve nenhuma puÃrpera com baixa autoeficÃcia. Houve associaÃÃo entre todas as variÃveis sociodemogrÃficas e os escores da BSES-SF em todas as etapas do estudo. Quanto a idade (p =0,003 para mulheres com 18-35 anos), raÃas negra e parda (p= 0,001), ter um parceiro (p= 0,013), mulheres com mais de 9 anos de estudos (p= 0,026), renda familiar (p= 0,001), ser dona do lar (p= 0,012), morar com atà duas pessoas (p= 0,001) e nÃo fumar (p= 0,001). Referentes aos antecedentes obstÃtricos observa-se associaÃÃo estatÃstica entre o nÃmero de abortos e autoeficÃcia (p= 0,001), ser primÃpara (p= 0,003). A autoeficÃcia em amamentar foi influenciada positivamente pelo planejamento da gravidez (p= 0,002), pela orientaÃÃo e incentivo que a puÃrpera recebeu dos familiares (p= 0,001), agentes de saÃde (p= 0,001), enfermeiros (p= 0,007) e mÃdicos (p= 0,001), parto vaginal (p= 0,001), amamentar apÃs o parto (p= 0,006). Observa-se que houve aumento da mÃdia dos escores da escala de autoeficÃcia (M0-60; M1-64; M2-66,5; M3-64). Constata-se que as participantes do estudo apresentaram nÃvel elevado de autoeficÃcia. Considerando o tamanho amostral, ao final de 60, 120 e 180 dias respectivamente 44(89,8%), 37(88,1%) e 28(80%) mulheres permaneciam amamentando seus filhos. No decorrer do estudo 17 mulheres interromperam a amamentaÃÃo, sendo a maioria com 180 dias quando 7(20%) das mulheres por algum motivo deixaram de amamentar. No inÃcio do monitoramento, ainda no alojamento conjunto, 100% das mulheres praticavam o AME. O AME apresentou declÃnio progressivo chegando a 17,9% aos 6 meses. Os resultados revelaram que a prÃtica da amamentaÃÃo à influenciada por questÃes sociais, econÃmicas, culturais e por experiÃncias anteriores da prÃtica, por isso, todas essas variÃveis devem ser levadas em consideraÃÃo nas aÃÃes de promoÃÃo do Aleitamento Materno. O fato de a mulher apresentar elevada autoeficÃcia nÃo à suficiente para que esta mantenha o Aleitamento Materno Exclusivo pelo perÃodo preconizado de seis meses. Sendo necessÃrio o apoio contÃnuo dos profissionais de saÃde, em especial o enfermeiro, durante o processo de amamentaÃÃo.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the self-efficacy of women in the postpartum period for their potential to breastfeed. Longitudinal study of type panel. Conducted in the period May to December 2015, the study was divided into four stages: the first was made by direct contact with puerperal held in rooming unit (AC) District Hospital Gonzaga Mota of Messejana, in Fortaleza, CearÃ. The three subsequent contacts were made by telephone through with 2, 4 and 6 months postpartum. The initial sample was 66 mothers. Data collection instruments contemplated sociodemographic, obstetric and current delivery and pregnancy. To evaluate the self-efficacy of women was used the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Scale - Short Form (BSES-SF). As a result it was found that most of women presented high self-efficacy at baseline (N = 59; 89.4%) and the end (N = 27; 96.4%). There was no postpartum women with low self-efficacy. There was an association between all sociodemographic variables and BSES-SF scores at all stages of the study. As for age (p = 0.003 for women 18-35 years old), black and brown races (p = 0.001), having a partner (p = 0.013), women with over 9 years of study (p = 0.026), income family (p = 0.001), owner of the home (p = 0.012), living with up to two people (p = 0.001) and smoking (p = 0.001). Pertaining to obstetric history is observed statistical association between the number of abortions and self-efficacy (p = 0.001), primiparous (p = 0.003). The self-efficacy in nursing was positively influenced by the planning of pregnancy (p = 0.002), the guidance and encouragement that puerperal received from relatives (p = 0.001), health workers (p = 0.001), nurses (p = 0.007) and medical (p = 0.001), vaginally (p = 0.001), breast-feeding after birth (p = 0.006). It is observed that there was an increase of the average self-efficacy scale scores (M0-60, M1-64; M2-66,5; M3-64). It is noted that the study participants showed a high level of self-efficacy. Considering the sample size at the end of 60, 120 and 180 days respectively 44 (89.8%), 37 (88.1%) and 28 (80%) women were still breastfeeding their children. During the study 17 women stopped breastfeeding, the largest quantity of 180 days while 7 (20%) of women for some reason stopped breastfeeding. At the start of monitoring, even in the rooming, 100% of women practiced EBF. The AME showed progressive decline reaching 17.9% at 6 months. The results revealed that the practice of breastfeeding is influenced by social, economic, cultural and previous experiences of practice, so all of these variables must be taken into account in Breastfeeding promotion activities. The fact that women have high self-efficacy is not enough for it to maintain exclusive breastfeeding for recommended period of six months. Requiring the ongoing support of health professionals, especially nurses during breastfeeding.

Abstract:
Abstract Cato, K. 2015 The first breastfeeding session: studies on caregivers’ support and breastfeeding duration. 33pp. Uppsala. ISBN 978-91-506-2494-6   It is well-known that the first breastfeeding session can be essential for breastfeeding duration. The hands-on approach given by health care professionals, where health care professionals touch the woman’s breast and the baby in order to stimulate latch on and breastfeeding, has been described as awkward and disturbing.   The aim of this thesis was to increase knowledge on the first breastfeeding session postpartum, as to frequency and experience of the hands-on approach, and possible correlates of shorter breastfeeding duration.   Questionnaires were sent five days, six weeks and six months postpartum, including questions regarding breastfeeding initiation and duration. Eight hundred and fifty-four women and 679 women were included in Study I and Study II, respectively.   The prevalence of the hands-on approach was 38%. Women who received the hands-on approach were more likely to report a negative experience of the first breastfeeding session (Study I). Seventy-seven percent of the women reported exclusive breastfeeding at two months postpartum. Being a first time mother, reporting emotional distress during pregnancy and giving birth by cesarean section were factors independently associated with exclusive breastfeeding less than two months postpartum (Study II).   These results can help to develop clinical practice, in order to improve women’s experience of the first breastfeeding session and identifying women in need of targeted, individualized support, to be able to promote longer exclusive breastfeeding duration.

Abstract:
Two-thirds of UK mothers begin breastfeeding, but many soon stop. Although breastfeeding benefits health, infant feeding is influenced by social and attitudinal factors. Study one prospectively investigated the attitudes and experiences of 514 women. Past experience predicted which multiparae would stop by six weeks. Manual social class and considering bottle feeding did so for primiparae. Perceived insufficient milk was the commonest reason for stopping. Study two, a randomised trial of support from breastfeeding counsellors, recruited 720 women. At four months, 46.1% (143/310) intervention and 42.3% (131/310) control women breastfed (Chi\(^2\)=0.942, P=0.33); 73.9% (229/310) vs 79.4% (246/310) gave bottle feeds (Chi\(^2\)=2.60, P=0.11). Survival analysis confirmed that differences between intervention and control women's partial and full breastfeeding duration were not significant (P=0.45 and 0.15 respectively.) Significantly fewer intervention women felt they had insufficient milk. Qualitative analysis of women’s comments revealed they wanted better information, practical help with positioning, effective advice, encouragement and their feelings acknowledged. Women valued counselling, but their feeding behaviour changed little, which may reflect the strength of social influences and that not all mothers contacted the counsellors postnatally. Practical support in the early postnatal period is important. Counselling may increase women's confidence in breastfeeding and producing enough milk.

Abstract:
Breastfeeding self-efficacy is considered one of the key components of a successful breastfeeding experience. The benefits of breastfeeding are well established in the literature and have been widely communicated to the public, resulting in an increasing trend of breastfeeding initiation. However, the United States still falls short of Healthy People 2020 breastfeeding goals. The purpose of this project was to examine the effects of a standardized hospital-based prenatal breastfeeding class on breastfeeding self-efficacy. Dennis's breastfeeding self-efficacy theory was the foundation for the breastfeeding self-efficacy tool used in this project. A quasi-experimental design used a convenience sample of 30 breastfeeding class participants as the experimental group and 30 postpartum women who had no formal breastfeeding education as the control group. The Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short Form (BSES-SF) was administered to the intervention group prior to the breastfeeding class, at the end of the class, prior to hospital discharge, and at 2 weeks postpartum. The control group received the survey prior to hospital discharge and at 2 weeks postpartum. Key findings indicated that participants in the breastfeeding class demonstrated a statistically significant increase in breastfeeding confidence after the class (t = 9.55(29), p = 0.00). There was no difference between the intervention and control groups at discharge (t = -.412(47), p = 0.686). Nurses and lactation professionals are in a position to evoke social change by examining the impact of breastfeeding self-efficacy and using the findings to shape breastfeeding education.

Abstract:
Given the importance of breastfeeding to maternal and infant health, we employed Google Trends to examine U.S. mothers’ search engine use for information related to breastfeeding. We conducted an analysis of the use of the Google search engine related to the broad topic of ‘breastfeeding”, as well as patterns for more specific terms related to breastfeeding. Given the significant role that breastfeeding pain plays in influencing breastfeeding persistence, we examined patterns in mothers’ use of Google to seek information related to breastfeeding pain and how that compares to other breastfeeding topics. We also examined diurnal patterns in these searches as well as state-level characteristics that predict search intensity. We found that searches related to breastfeeding have increased over time and that searches related to breastfeeding pain were the most common. Mothers’ searches tended to occur late at night and were more likely to occur in relatively unpopulated states and for states with lower income. The findings illustrate how Google Trends can be analyzed to highlight the concerns of new mothers in real-time and how such data can reveal how mothers use the internet to seek out help, guidance, and support for issues related to breastfeeding.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: The breastfeeding practice of primiparous mothers in developed and developing countries is influenced by various factors. The breastfeeding factor for primiparous mothers is closely related to their initial experience of giving breast milk to success and failure in achieving exclusive breastfeeding. The purpose of this study was to explore the factors that influence primiparous mothers in giving exclusive breastfeeding. Subjects and Methods: This scoping review uses an electronic bibliographic database method. Articles were obtained from 5 databases, namely Science Direct, PubMed, EBSCO, Wiley and ProQuest conducted systematically from 2009 to 2019. Articles used in this scoping review were described in the Prefered Reporting System of Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) flowchart. Results: Based on 8 articles from 421 articles obtained showed that internal factors come from the mother herself and external factors that come from outside the mother were related in giving exclusive breastfeeding. Internal factors include the initial response of primiparous mothers in exclusive breastfeeding, maternal psychology when giving exclusive breastfeeding, coping with primiparous mothers during the process of giving exclusive breastfeeding, commitment of primiparous mothers to exclusive breastfeeding. Maternal external factors include social support for primiparous mothers in providing exclusive breastfeeding and socio-culture to primiparous mothers in providing exclusive breastfeeding. Conclusion: The most influential internal factor is the primiparous mother’s psychological factor. The most influential external factor is socio-culture. There are still many countries that adhere to socio-culture which can hinder the process of exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Young mothers go through the transitional stages of becoming parent and adult simultaneously. This poses a breastfeeding challenge that older mother does not encounter. The coverage of breastfeeding in young mothers was lower and the average duration of breastfeeding was shorter than that of adult mothers. The study aimed to review experience of breastfeeding in young mothers. Subjects and Method: A scoping review framework were adapted from Arksey and O’Malley method. It consists of five stages: 1) Identify research questions, 2) Identify relevant articles, 3) Select studies, 4) Comply data, 5) Summarize and report results. The inclusion criteria were original research, published from 2009-2019, and in English language. The exclusion criteria were randomized controlled trial study, reviewed articles, and reports or books. The quality of the article was assessed using Hawker’s Quality Assessment Tool and reported by PRISMA flowchart. Results: Eleven articles were selected from 562. The experience of breastfeeding in young mothers has been described in three mains thematic: (1) Mother decision to breastfeed were more self-centered, (2) The success of breastfeeding was supported by many factors, including feeling comfortable while breastfeeding, family and peer support, knowledge of breastfeeding benefits, and support from health workers, and (3) Obstacles during breastfeeding such as mothers feeling confined, community responses, worries about food consumption, have many roles, the assumption that babies are more satisfied with formula milk, physical discomfort, and inadequate response from health workers. Conclusion: Experience of breastfeeding in young mothers is influenced by three aspects: 1) Decision making to breastfeed, 2) Factors that support the implementation of breastfeeding, and 3) Constraints during breastfeeding.

Abstract:
One of the most effective ways to ensure a child’s health and survival is breastfeeding. Colostrum feeding, positioning, and attachment play an important role in breastfeeding whereas poor breastfeeding technique leads to premature discontinuation of breastfeeding, poor milk transfer, Breast engorgement and the absence of colostrum during feeding might lead to an increase in the risk of infection. The current study aimed to assess positioning and attachment during breastfeeding among postnatal mothers, create awareness of colostrum feeding, and identify the factors associated with improper positioning and poor attachment. A Hospital-based mixed-methods study was conducted in August 2022 and September 2022 for 2 months in a tertiary hospital in Karur District, Tamil Nadu. In the quantitative phase, 114 Postnatal mothers breastfeeding techniques were continuously observed based on the World Health Organization’s Baby-friendly hospital initiative, and Infant and young child feeding (IYCF) criteria were adopted and grades were given. In the qualitative phase, 40 staff nurses and 12 pediatricians were selected to state the action points to improve poor breastfeeding practices. The mean rank and Kendall’s Concordance coefficient were used to calculate the data. Around 20.5% and 21.4% of Postnatal mothers demonstrated improper positioning and poor attachment, respectively. Primipara mothers, less than 15-day-old infants, and failure to receive breastfeeding counseling were associated with poor breastfeeding practices. They deserve more attention, support, and direction for effective breastfeeding. Awareness of colostrum feeding should be created through poster displays, and its importance should be stressed by healthcare workers to postnatal mothers. The action points need to be prioritized and implemented to achieve a baby friendly hospital in the district. Keywords: positioning, attachment, breastfeeding, colostrum, postnatal
