The effect of online hypno-breastfeeding and solution-focused psychoeducation on mothers’ breastfeeding motivation and perception of insufficient milk: Randomize controlled study

Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of hypno-breastfeeding (HB) and solution-focused psychoeducation (SFP) on breastfeeding motivation and insufficient milk perception in mothers. It is a randomized controlled experimental study. The sample of the study consisted of 90 women who met the inclusion criteria. Women in the intervention groups had increased motivation to breastfeed and decreased perception of insufficient milk. Those in the SFP group had significantly lower midwife support scores than the HB group. HB and SFP are safe and effective methods to increase mothers’ motivation to breastfeed and reduce the perception of insufficient milk.
