Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of counseling based on hypno-breastfeeding philosophy on breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding success in pregnant adolescents.

Research Hypotheses H1a: The intervention group\'s breastfeeding self-efficacy after hypno-breastfeeding counseling is different from the control group.

H1b: The intervention group\'s breastfeeding success after hypno-breastfeeding counseling is different from the control group.

This thesis is a randomized controlled experimental study. The study is planned to be conducted with two parallel groups, namely the intervention and control groups. Hypno-breastfeeding training will be applied to the intervention group, and standard breastfeeding training will be applied to the control group. The study will be conducted with pregnant adolescents who applied to the pregnancy clinic of Adıyaman University Training and Research Hospital between December 2024 and April 2025.

Hypno-breastfeeding Education Group

A counseling program based on hypno-breastfeeding philosophy, where 4-week education content will be presented to pregnant adolescents in their 28-30th week of pregnancy and applications will be made, will be implemented with 4 sessions and 6 follow-ups. A breastfeeding education booklet (Appendix 6) will be prepared in the implementation of the counseling service. Each session will last an average of 1 hour. The training sessions will be conducted face-to-face. The average number of pregnant women in each follow-up will consist of 3-5 people. During and after the training processes, pregnant women will be provided with regular information based on hypno-breastfeeding philosophy, affirmation, relaxation techniques and meditation materials (Appendix 6) and counseling based on hypno-breastfeeding philosophy.

Counseling based on the philosophy of hypnobreastfeeding

Hypno-breastfeeding is a method that involves a natural effort to use subconscious energy so that the breastfeeding process can proceed comfortably and smoothly and the mother can produce enough breast milk for the baby's growth and development needs (AIMI, 2010; Sofiyanti et al., 2019). With hypno-breastfeeding, the breastfeeding process takes place comfortably and the mother subconsciously registers that breastfeeding is a natural and comfortable process (Sembırıng, 2017; Altıparmak, 2021; Kilçi Erciyas and Sevil, 2021). In the philosophy of hypno-breastfeeding, positive schemas for breastfeeding are created in the subconscious. By focusing on the use of the primitive brain, the stimulation of the neocortex with unnecessary information and stimuli is avoided (Aluş Tokat and Gökçe İsbir, 2023). This technique, which helps to facilitate a holistic look at the mind, body and soul of breastfeeding mothers, allows the mother to be more relaxed, calm and comfortable during breastfeeding
