Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Primiparous Breastfeeding Motivation Scale

    The scale, which was validated and reliable in Turkish by Akçay and Demirgöz Bal, was developed by Stockdale et al. to determine the factors affecting breastfeeding motivation in primiparous women. It was determined that the scale consisting of 29 items was 7-point Likert type and had 4 sub-dimensions. These sub-dimensions are: the value attached to breastfeeding, self-efficacy, perceived midwife support, and success expectancy. As the score obtained from each sub-dimension increases, the breastfeeding motivation level of that sub-dimension increases. A cutoff in the assessment of the scale There is no value or total score. Evaluation by summing the scores obtained in each subgroup in the scale is done. As the score increases, the characteristics of the subgroup and therefore the motivation increase.

Study Arms (3)

Solution-oriented approach group

EXPERIMENTAL

A preliminary assessment of the pregnant woman's thoughts on breastfeeding was made and the EARS (Eliciting, Amplifying, Reinforcing and Start Over) process was applied. Eliciting, Amplifying, Reinforcing and Start Over process guides the second and subsequent sessions in a sequential order.

Hypno-breastfeeding group

EXPERIMENTAL

A preliminary assessment was made about the pregnant woman's thoughts on breastfeeding. In the hypno-nursing philosophy, affirmation, relaxation, imagination and visualization techniques were used in order to positively affect the subconscious mind during the breastfeeding process.

control group

OTHER

Data were collected with the Introductory Information Form at the first interview (admission to the postpartum service) with the women in the control group. Post-test data were collected with Primiparous Breastfeeding Motivation Scale and Insufficient Milk Perception Scale at 16-24 hours postpartum.

Interventions

A preliminary assessment of the pregnant woman's thoughts on breastfeeding was made and the EARS (Eliciting, Amplifying, Reinforcing and Start Over) process was applied. Eliciting, Amplifying, Reinforcing and Start Over process guides the second and subsequent sessions in a sequential order. The Eliciting, Amplifying, Reinforcing and Start Over technique reminds the counselor of the basic concepts of solution-oriented approach and its explanation is as follows;
