The aim of the research is to examine the effect of a breastfeeding training program based on the theory of planned behavior on Pregnant Womens' Breastfeeding Adaptation, Motivation, Self-Efficacy And The Tendency To Early Weaning.
The aim of the study is to examine the effects of a breastfeeding education program based on the theory of planned behavior on breastfeeding adaptation, motivation, self-efficacy, and the tendency to stop breastfeeding.
The study was planned to be conducted as a single-center, parallel group, randomized controlled experimental, prospective study in a pretest-posttest design.
The study was planned to be conducted in the pregnancy school/breastfeeding counseling polyclinic of Düzce Atatürk State Hospital. The sample of the study will consist of pregnant women in the last trimester who meet the inclusion criteria. Considering the losses that may occur during the study process, it is planned to continue the study with a total of 88 pregnant women.
The data of the study will be collected from the patient based on the "Introductory Information Form", "Information Form Regarding Birth and Breastfeeding Process", "Breastfeeding Adaptation Scale", "Breastfeeding Motivation Scale (For Primiparous Mothers)", "Breastfeeding Motivation Scale (For Multiparous Mothers)", "Antenatal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form", "Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form", "Breastfeeding Discontinuity Scale" and "Breastfeeding Follow-up Form".
In the study, the "Breastfeeding Education Program Based on Planned Behavior Theory" consisting of 2 sessions will be applied to the intervention group, while the routine breastfeeding education in the hospital where the study is conducted will be applied to the control group. The breastfeeding process will be followed for 6 months after birth in both groups.
In the analysis of the study, it is planned to analyze descriptive statistics (number, percentage, mean and standard deviation), significance test of the difference between two means in independent groups (t test), t test in dependent groups, multi-way and one-way variance analysis in repeated measurements, Pearson correlation analyses for the relationships between the dimensions determining the scale levels, and the chi-square homogeneity test for whether the intervention and control groups are homogeneous in terms of characteristics.

| Breastfeeding Attrition Prediction Tool (BAPT) | Breastfeeding Attrition Prediction Tool (BAPT) is a scale consisting of 90 questions on a 5-point Likert-type scale based on the theory of planned behavior. There are four different sub-dimensions in the scale, which does not have a total score. These are "Negative Breastfeeding Attitude", "Positive Breastfeeding Attitude", "Social and Professional Support" and "Breastfeeding Control" and each sub-scale is scored separately. A high scale score indicates that the mother has high breastfeeding control. | Pre-test application after routine breastfeeding education, Post-test application after the Breastfeeding Education Program Based on Planned Behavior Theory, 7-14 days postpartum, 4-6 weeks postpartum, 4th month postpartum, Postpartum 6th month |

| Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short Form (Antenatal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale) | A 14-item short form of the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale was created. He stated that the short version of the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale could also be used during pregnancy by using the phrase "future tense" in its items. The short form of the scale provides ease of application and accurately evaluates self-efficacy. Cronbach's alpha value of the scale was found to be 0.94. The scale was created on a five-point Likert type, where 1 = not at all sure and 5 = always sure. A minimum of 14 and a maximum of 70 points can be obtained from the scale. As the score increases, it means that breastfeeding self-efficacy increases |

In order to ensure confidentiality in the group distributions, the block randomization assignment of the intervention and control groups will be made by someone outside the research and will be received in pre-prepared opaque envelopes. A separate envelope will be prepared for each pregnant woman participating in the research and she will be asked to choose one. Pregnant women will not know which group they are in. Since the researcher will also be the implementer of the application, blinding will not be possible for the groups that the pregnant women are in. For this reason, only participant and statistician blinding will be provided in the study.

| Routine Breastfeeding Training | Behavioral | The control group will receive routine breastfeeding education at the hospital where the study is conducted. Routine breastfeeding education includes the importance of breast milk and breastfeeding (benefits of breast milk and breastfeeding, correct breastfeeding technique and breastfeeding positions, time for the first feeding of the newborn, feeding method, expressing and storing breast milk, techniques for giving expressed breast milk as close as possible to breastfeeding, harms of bottle use, breast problems and coping methods). Pregnant women who give birth at the hospital where the study is conducted receive routine breastfeeding education from the breastfeeding nurse in the ward before being discharged. |

| Breastfeeding Adaptation Scale (BFAS) | The 27-item scale evaluates breastfeeding adaptation. It has 8 sub-dimensions: emotional change between the mother and her baby (4 items), breastfeeding confidence (5 items), sufficient breast milk (3 items), baby's nutritional capacity and growth (4 items), familiarity with the baby (4 items), discomfort during breastfeeding (3 items), preservation of breast milk volume (2 items) and receiving social support (2 items). It was developed on a 5-point Likert type scale, where 1=Strongly agree, 5=Strongly disagree. A minimum of 27 and a maximum of 135 points can be obtained from the scale. The higher the score obtained from the scale, the higher the breastfeeding adaptation. | 7-14 days postpartum |

Scale items are graded from 1=I strongly disagree to 4=I strongly agree. The scale is a 4-point Likert type, and each item is scored between 1-4. There is no total score for the scale. The scores of the sub-dimensions are calculated by taking the average of the scale sub-dimension scores. As the score obtained from the scale sub-dimension increases, the motivation representing that sub-dimension also increases.
