This study aimed to determine the effect of breastfeeding education given to pregnant women by a hybrid simulation method in the antenatal period on postpartum breastfeeding. This study will be carried out in a family health center in Turkey. Breastfeeding education will be given to pregnant women using a hybrid simulation method consisting of a wearable breast model and the standard patient in the intervention group. Women in the control group will receive only routine breastfeeding education.
The research will be conducted as a randomized controlled trial. The stratified block randomization methods will be used to assign women to the intervention and control groups. The personal information form and Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short Form (Antenatal) will be implemented to all women before the intervention. Breastfeeding education will be given to pregnant women using a hybrid simulation method consisting of a wearable breast model and the standard patient to support women in breastfeeding and to ensure the continuity of breastfeeding in the postpartum period. Breastfeeding education will be given to women in the 32-36 weeks of pregnancy in the antenatal period. The control group will be received the routine antenatal breastfeeding education given to all women by healthcare personnel as part of the family health center procedures. The Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short Form (Postnatal) and the LATCH Breastfeeding Assessment Tool will be administered to women in both the experimental and control groups within the postpartum fifth days and at sixth week postpartum.

| The Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (Antenatal) | The scale consists of 14 questions and is a five-point Likert type. The lowest score of 14 points and the highest of 70 points are obtained from the scale. The higher the score indicates a higher self-efficacy perception. | Baseline: Between 32 and 36 weeks of pregnancy |

| LATCH Breastfeeding Assesment Tool | The LATCH Breastfeeding Assesment Tool was developed to objectively evaluate breastfeeding success. LATCH consists of five evaluation criteria. Each criterion is evaluated between 0-2 points. The lowest score that can be obtained from the entire scale is 0 and the highest score is 10. The higher score indicates a higher breastfeeding. success. | Postpartum on the fifth day |
