Brief Summary

Motivational interviewing is a technique used in many fields. No study has been found in national and international databases investigating the effect of motivational interviewing on the perception of insufficient milk, breastfeeding motivation and cortisol level. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of motivational interviews on the perception of insufficient milk, breastfeeding motivation and cortisol level.

Detailed Description

Motivational interviewing; It is an evidence-based and client-centered approach that finds and eliminates the person's complex emotions, motivates, and increases the person's self-efficacy and motivation in the decision-making process. Breast milk is the only physiological baby food that contains the nutrients necessary for babies' absorption in appropriate quantity and quality. It is very important for the mother and baby's health that the mother starts breastfeeding her baby as early as possible and that the baby is fed only breast milk for the first six months. The perception of insufficient milk is defined as the mother thinking that she cannot produce milk or believing that there is too little milk in her breasts. The main reasons are; The mother's stay in the hospital longer than normal during the postpartum period, the mother's separation from her baby, and therefore the late establishment of the emotional bond between the mother and the baby may trigger the perception of insufficient milk. Cortisol is a glucocorticoid steroid hormone that is released in the human body during stress and whose release is regulated through the hypothalamic-pituitary adrenal (HPA) system. Stress and fear of birth cause insufficient milk secretion. Stress and fear in the mother can prevent early skin-to-skin contact between the mother and the baby by affecting the oxytocin hormone.

Study Groups

control group

Mothers who will be included in the control group will be interviewed twice in total. Pretest data will be obtained by applying the "Personal Information Form", "Insufficient Milk Perception Scale" and "Breastfeeding Motivation Scale" during the first interview. A sample of the mothers' saliva will be taken to measure cortisol values. Four weeks after the pre-test data are obtained, post-test data will be obtained by applying the "Insufficient Milk Perception Scale" and "Breastfeeding Motivation Scale". Finally, a saliva sample will be taken to check the cortisol value again.

No interventions assigned to this group

intervention group

Before starting the motivational interviews, pre-test data will be obtained by applying the "Personal Information Form", "Insufficient Milk Perception Scale" and "Breastfeeding Motivation Scale" to the mothers in the intervention group. Afterwards, a sample of the mothers' saliva will be taken to measure their cortisol levels. A total of 4 sessions of motivational interviews will be held for infertile women, 1 session per week for four weeks. At the end of four weeks, post-test data will be obtained by applying the "Insufficient Milk Perception Scale" and "Breastfeeding Motivation Scale". A sample of the mothers' saliva will be taken to measure cortisol levels again.
