Introduction: Breastmilk is the first food for newborns and is the main nutrition for babies. The low level of exclusive breastfeeding is due to the lack of knowledge of mothers about exclusive breastfeeding. Therefore, in order for mother's knowledge to be good, it can be done by providing education about exclusive breastfeeding. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of providing education using online media for pregnant women on the knowledge of mothers in breastfeeding, self-efficacy and the success of breastfeeding alone for one month. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pre and post-test nonequivalent control group approach. The sampling technique used probability sampling, which consisted of 44 pregnant women in the third trimester. Collection using a questionnaire and analyzed using the chi square test with a significance level of α ≤ 0.05. Results: This study shows that there is no significant relationship between the provision of online education and maternal knowledge with a p value of 0.056 (α ≥ 0.05). There is a significant relationship between providing online education with maternal self-efficacy with a p value of 0.001 (α ≤ 0.05). There was no significant relationship between the provision of education and the success of breastfeeding for 1 month with a p value of 0.186 (α ≥ 0.05).

The coverage of exclusive breastfeeding for infants aged 0-5 months in Indonesia in 2018 is only 37.3%. Self-efficacy is one of the main factors affecting the behavior of exclusive breastfeeding. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the self-efficacy of mothers for breastfeeding decreased, so increasing efforts are needed. Increasing knowledge can be done by providing online education based on family centered maternity care (FCMC). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of FCMC-based online education on the self-efficacy of postpartum mothers in exclusive breastfeeding. This type of research is pre-experimental with one group pretest-posttest design with a total sample of 10 postpartum mothers. Data were analyzed using paired t-test. The results showed that the mean self-efficacy before being given online education was 41 with a standard deviation of 4.37, the mean self-efficacy after being given peer education was 59.8 with a standard deviation of 3.4. There is a difference in the mean value before and after the online education intervention was given with p-value = 0.000 (p <0.05). There is an effect of FCMC-based online education on the self-efficacy of postpartum mothers in breastfeeding. Health servicesare expected to facilitate FCMC-based online education programs to increase self-confidence in breastfeeding.

Abstract Background Limited research outside China suggest that antenatal milk expression in late pregnancy (AME) may promote breastfeeding. A few studies have evaluated the safety and efficacy of AME in women with diabetes in pregnancy, little or no evidence exists to explore its effects on breastfeeding self-efficacy and early breastfeeding, particularly in first-time mothers. The objective of this study was to explore the effect of AME on breastfeeding for the first-time mothers during the postpartum hospitalization. Methods A randomized controlled trial was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Haikou, Hainan. We recruited pregnant women who had completed 37 weeks of gestation and randomly assigned them to either the intervention group (n = 45) or the control group (n = 45). The pregnant women in the intervention group were advised to rhythmic self-massage of breasts three times daily at any time. The control group was given routine midwifery and obstetric care. The breastfeeding self-efficacy scale(BSES)was used to measure the self-efficacy of breastfeeding at 37 weeks, 38 weeks and the third day postpartum. The time to lactogenesis II and the rate of exclusive breastfeeding was measured three times every day by the researcher in the ward. Results Compared with the control group, the intervention group had higher breastfeeding self-efficacy scores measured by the scale of BSES(P < 0.05), the intervention group had higher exclusive breastfeeding rate on the first day, second day, third-day postpartum, and the difference was statistically significant༈P < 0.05). The time to lactogenesis II in the intervention group was earlier than that in the control group(P < 0.05). Conclusions Antenatal breast milk expression at term improved the confidence in the ability to breastfeed and produce milk postpartum, thus significantly improving the behavior of exclusive breastfeeding, and increasing the percentage of breastfed infants during their hospital stay, these infants were able to avoid infant formula milk in this important early period.
