Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Both groups received standard breastfeeding education at the maternity ward. Additionally, the intervention is based on informative and supportive videos and a whatsapp group for interpersonal support. Videos and whatsapp groups were created and moderated by Infant Feeding Helpers. These are women from the same socio-economical background as the subjects, and have previous history of breastfeeding a minimum of 6 months exclusive breastfeeding.
The aim of the intervention was to increase initiation and duration of breastfeeding by increasing comprehensibility, manageability and meaningfulness of the breastfeeding period and therefore by enhancing their sense of coherence.
Chi-squared tests were used for descriptive statistics, Wilcoxon test was used for pre- post results of SOC and (SE) within each group. The change in pre-post SOC, SOC parameters and SE scores between control and intervention groups was analyzed with Quade non parametric.
