Abstract Adequacy of milk production in the newborns will affect the success of exclusive breastfeeding. Not all postpartum mothers are able to increase milk production in the postpartum period. Acupressure at the meridian points is one way to increase milk production in postpartum mothers. This study aims to determine the effect of acupressure therapy on increasing breast milk production in postpartum mothers at PKU Muhamadiyah Bantul. This study was a quantitative study  a quasi-experimental research design with pre-test and post-test nonequivalent control group. The number of respondents in each group was 17 people. The treatment given was acupressure at the meridian points for 5 minutes on days 2 and 3of poatpartum. Breastfeeding adequacy was assessed before treatment and on day 4 postpartum. Data were analyzed by Mc Nemar analysis. The results showed that there was a significant difference in breast milk production before and after acupressure with p value of 0.000 (p value <0.05). There was a significant difference in breast milk production in the control group before and after being given the breastfeeding technique leaflet p value 0.001 (p value <0.05). Conclusion: There is no significant difference in breast milk production after being given acupressure and after being given leaflets about breastfeeding techniques at PKU Muhamadiyah Bantul p value 0.100 (p value> 0.05).  Keywords: acupressure, breast milk production, postpartum

Background: Breast milk is the main source of nutrition for babies from birth until they are able to digest other nutritional sources after 6 months of age. Failure in the breastfeeding process is often caused by maternal factors, namely breastfeeding. Actions to facilitate milk production include the oxytocin massage method.Objective: The aim of the study was to analyze the effect of oxytocin massage compared to counseling on breastfeeding techniques using leaflets on the milk production of primiparous postpartum mothers.Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design. The sample selection was accidental sampling with inclusion and exclusion criteria, which consisted of 30 postpartum mothers who were divided into 2 groups, 15 respondents were given oxytocin massage and 15 respondents were given leaflets. The data analysis method was univariate and bivariate using Paired T-test and Independent T-test.Results: The results showed that the oxytocin massage treatment had a p-value= 0.000 (p < 0.05) meaning that there was a difference between before and after treatment. The control group had a p-value= 0.432 (p > 0.05) meaning that there was no difference between before and after treatment. There was a significant difference between the treatment group compared to the control group.Conclusion: Oxytocin massage has a significant effect in increasing milk production in primiparous postpartum mothers. Oxytocin massage is more effective than counseling using leaflet media to increase breast milk production.

The exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia has not yet reached the national level target. Data from Private Hospital in West Jakarta found that there were only 60% of mothers who gave exclusive breast feeding in 2016, 38% of whom said they were unsuccessful due to low breast milk. The method that can be used to increase milk production is Hands on Pumping (HOP) technique, HOP is a technique of flushing the breast milk by relying on the strength of our thumb and index finger. To observe the effect of HOP on breast milk production in post partum mothers. We employed a quasi experimental design with pre and post test design, with the control group. The sample size was 68 mothers post multiparous partum with criteria 34 as the HOP experimental group and 34 post partum mothers as the control group (without HOP). On the third day of the intervention group there was a significant increase in breast milk production from the first day. The experimental group received HOP intervention (34 mothers) with a rise of 121.08 ml. This means that there is a difference in milk production before and after treatment. On the third day, the results of the p value are 0,000, with p value &lt;0.05, which brought to the conclusion that there was an influence of HOP on breast milk production. HOP can significantly increase milk production. Next researcher is recommended to conduct similar research by paying attention to other factors that also affect breast milk production, such as psychological, nutrition, maternal breast conditions, and hormones.

Banana blossom is a food that has many benefits and is easily obtained by the community because it can be easily planted in the yard of the house. Banana blossom processing in the community can be done by boiling and steaming. Banana blossom also contains protein, minerals (especially phosphorus, calcium and iron) and a number of vitamins A, B1 and C. There are many reasons for mothers do not give exclusive breastfeeding to their babies. However, what is most often found is insufficient breast milk. There are several factors that influence milk production, one of which is the food factor. One of the efforts to increase breastmilk production that will be carried out is by giving Kepok Banana blossom Simplicia. This study aims to determine the effect of Kepok banana blossom simplicia on increasing breast milk production in postpartum mothers at Nurhayati and Nining Pelawati Midwifery Pratama Clinic, Lubuk Pakam sub district in 2019. This type of research was a Quasi Experiment with a Non Equivalent Control Group design and purposive sampling. Samples were normal postpartum mothers from day 7 to day 21 with parity of 1-2 and were willing to take part in the study through informed consent. Based on the results of the Wilcoxon Rank test and the Mann-Whitney test, it was obtained a p-value of 0.000 (α <0.05), which means that there was a significant effect on the simplicia of Kepok banana blossom on increasing milk production in postpartum mothers and it is expected that it can be used as an effort to increase milk production in postpartum mothers and to meet the needs of babies without having formula milk.

Background: The protein needed by breastfeeding mothers can be supplied from nuts, including green beans. Green beans contain active compounds, namely polyphenols and flavonoids which function to increase the hormone prolactin. When the prolactin hormone increases, milk secretion will be maximized so that the quantity of breast milk will increase and the nutritional content contained in green beans will increase the nutritional content in breast milk (Suskesty, 2017)Purpose of the study: to determine the relationship between the frequency of breastfeeding and the provision of additional nutritional consumption of vigna radiate with milk production in post-partum mothers on the 15th day in Klaten district.Methods: This type of research is pre-experimental design with post test only design with control group design. The population in this study were all mothers who had babies aged 1-3 months and resided in the working area of Puskesmas Klaten from January to September 2020. This study is a mother who has a baby aged 1 - 3 months and breastfeeding exclusively in the working area of Puskesmas Klaten with a sample size of 40 respondents consisting of 20 respondents in the treatment group (consumption of green beans) and 20 respondents in the control group (not consuming green beans). . The data analysis technique is the Spearman Correlation and Independent T-Test.Results: There was a correlation between the frequency of breastfeeding and milk production on the 15th day of postpartum mothers with a P value: .000. There is a difference in the average milk production in the 15th day postpartum mothers who are given additional Vigna Radiata (green beans) food and not given Vigna Radiata with P value: .000Conclusion: The frequency and consumption of additional Vigna radiata (green beans) nutrition can increase breast milk production

Background of Study: Herbs as Indonesia’s cultural heritage have been used hereditary in many generations. One of them is temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb). The immunomodulator (Immunostimulant) is a compound that can boost the immunity mechanism of the body, specifically as well as non-specifically. Rahman (2007) stated that temulawak is taken from rhizomes which consists of 64% starch, 1,6 – 22% curcumin and 1,48 – 1,63 % essential oil that believed to be able to improve the kidney’s work and to serve as anti-inflammatory. Because of these many benefits of temulawak and the phenomena of drinking herbs habits by postpartum women particularly in Javanese culture, then the researchers were encouraged to do a research on temulawak as a breast milk booster. Objective: To study the effect of giving temulawak on the breast milk production of postpartum mothers at independent midwife NINGSIH with the indicator of the babies’ weight gain, urination frequency, breastfeeding frequency and the length of babies’ sleep after being breastfed. Method: The research is a quasi-experiment and the research design is a Static Group Comparison in which observation method is applied. The population of this research is women in their postpartum time until the 14-day period after childbirth in Ningsih independent midwife during the research. The sample is all the qualified population who meets the requirement. The technique of the sampling is purposive sampling. The independent variable is the use of temulawak. The dependent variable is the milk production in breastfeeding in 14-day period after childbirth. The T-test is used for analyzing. The Result of the Study:The result of the study showed that the weight of the babies in the experimental group gained 535 grams in average and in the control group gained 270 in average. The urination frequency of the babies in the experimental group was 7.5 times in average and in the control group was 5.05 times. The breastfeeding frequency in the experimental group was 9.35 times in average and in the control group was 6.85 in average. After being breastfed, the babies in the experimental group spent 1.93 hours of sleeping in average, whereas the babies in the control group spent less than normal. In conclusion, there was only 1 person (5%) in the control group who had a good production of breast milk whereas in the experimental group, there were 14 persons (70%). Therefore, it can be concluded from the study that there was a significant effect on the use of temulawak to the production of breast milk of postpartum mothers with p value of 0,000 and alpha value of 0,05. Conclusion : There is a significant effect on the use of temulawak in increasing milk production in lactation in postpartum period

Abstrak: Produksi ASI yang kurang dan lambat keluar dapat menyebabkan ibu tidak memberikan ASI pada bayinya dengan cukup. Selain hormon prolaktin, proses laktasi juga bergantung pada hormon oksitosin, yang dilepas dari hipofise posterior sebagai reaksi terhadap penghisapan putting. Rolling massage salah satu terapi relaksasi yang bertujuan menstimulasi saraf pusat pada hipofisis posterior dan anterior sehingga dapat meningkatkan produksi ASI khususnya pada ibu post partum dan memberikan kenyamanan dan rileksasi setelah persalinan. Adapun tujuan penelitian adalah mengetahui efektifitas produksi ASI pada ibu post partum dengan massage rolling (punggung) di BPM Sri Sukeni Sleman. Metode penelitian ini adalah Quasi Experimental Design dengan rancangan penelitian two group post test design. Kelompok kontrol adalah ibu postpartum tanpa dipijat Massage roliing dan kelompok perlakuan adalah kelompok ibu postpartum yang dipijat masssage Roliing. Analisis data menggunakan uji independent t test dan paired sample t test. Hasil penelitian uji t sampel menunjukkan bahwa ada perbedaan yang bermakna (p=0.023<) produksi ASI (berat badan bayi) antara kelompok kontrol ( 2687,07 ± 160,155) dengan kelompok perlakuan (2846,13± 198,968). Perbedaan ini terlihat pada rerata berat badan bayi pada kelompok perlakuan lebih besar dibandingkan dengan kelompok. Massage rolling memengaruhi produksi ASI di BPM Sri Sukeni Sleman Tahun 2017. Abstract: The inadequate, slow production of breast milk makes mothers unable to provide enough breast milk to their babies. Besides the prolactin hormone, the lactation process also depends on oxytocin hormone which is secreted from the posterior hypophysis as a reaction on nipple suckling. Rolling massage is one of the relaxation therapy which aims to stimulate the central nerve on posterior and anterior hypophysis, so the breast milk production can be increased, particularly in the postpartum mothers, and comfort and relaxation after childbirth can be provided. This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of breast milk production in the postpartum mothers with massage rolling (back) in Sri Sukeni Community Empowerment Agency, Sleman. The methodology in this research is Quasi-Experimental Design with two-group posttest design. The control group is postpartum mothers without massage rolling and the treatment group is postpartum mother treated with the massage rolling. Data analysis used the independent t-test and the paired sample t-test. The research shows the result that in samples of t-test, there is a meaningful difference (p = 0.023<) in breast milk production (weight of baby) between control group (2,687.07 ± 160.155) and treatment group (2,846.13 ± 198.968). This difference is shown in the average weight of baby in treatment group which is higher compared with the control group. Massage rolling affects breast milk production in Sri Sukeni Community Empowerment Agency, Sleman in 2017.

The Difference

Background: Breast milk spending is a very complex interaction between mechanics, nerves, and hormons. The decrease and production of breast milk production in the first days after delivery can be caused by a lack of stimulation of prolactin and oxytocin hormons. Caesarea section does not allow the mother to breastfeed her infant more flexibly, with adaptation to the pain, so she should be able to support the health worker thoroughly about the lactation process. Purpose: to know the difference of endorphin, oxytocin and combination effect on breast milk production in Postoperative section of caesarea section. Research design: quasi experimental design type post test only non equivalent control group design. The population in this study were all postoperative mothers caesarea section, 10 samples for each treatment. Group 1 : endorphin massage, group 2 (control) : the oxytocin massage, and group 3 : the combine massage. Results: Combination massage is the best method to produce the highest amount of ASI because the largest Sig p value is (1,000) where the level is significant <0.05. So H0 this study was rejected means that there is a significant difference between the production of breast milk from the combination massage compared with the two massage done separately. Conclusion: It is expected during childbirth the midwife can develop and implement independent non-pharmacological midwife actions to help increase milk production
