Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

may 2022 and November 2022. The sample of the study consisted of 114 mothers who were breastfeeding in the postpartum period. In the study, 38 breastfeeding mothers were included in the PGE, GFM and control groups. Breastfeeding mothers in the PGE group were given a PGE application 3 days a week before going to bed and for 4 weeks, accompanied by a training CD prepared by the Turkish Psychological Association, under the supervision of the researcher. On the other hand, the breastfeeding mothers in the GFM group were listened to the relaxation background music included in the Progressive Relaxation Exercise CD 3 days a week before going to bed and for 4 weeks. Mothers in the control group received routine care practices applied in the clinic. The mothers in the control group did not receive any intervention and only measurement tools were applied. 'Personal Information Form', 'Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale' and 'Maternal Attachment Scale', 'Visual Analog Scale', 'Breastfeeding Classification' were used to collect data. Standard Deviation, Mean, Frequency and Chi-square tests were used to evaluate the data. Analysis of variance was used for repetitive measurements for the evaluation of breastfeeding self-efficacy and maternal attachment level within the group, and one-way analysis of variance was used for the evaluation between groups.
