Sponsor's own description
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of paternal support on breastfeeding adaptation and breastfeeding self-efficacy among mothers attending a structured pregnancy school program. The study is conducted at Zeynep Kamil Women and Children's Diseases Training and Research Hospital in Istanbul, Türkiye, and includes pregnant women and their partners. Participants are assigned to an experimental group (attending the program as a couple) or a control group (mother attends alone) using random allocation. Data are collected through validated self-report scales administered during the postpartum period. The primary outcomes include changes in maternal breastfeeding adaptation and self-efficacy, and paternal breastfeeding self-efficacy. This study addresses a critical gap in perinatal care by actively involving fathers in breastfeeding support and education, aiming to improve breastfeeding outcomes and promote shared parenting roles.
