Brief Summary

This study is designed to evaluate the effect of breastfeeding education on prenatal attachment and paternal attachment among first-time parents. A total of 101 first-time parents (52 in the intervention group and 49 in the control group) will be recruited. Pregnant women will complete the Prenatal Attachment Inventory before and after the intervention, and expectant fathers will complete the Paternal Prenatal Attachment Inventory before and after the intervention. Participants will be selected using non-probability and snowball sampling methods, and the breastfeeding education will be delivered online via Google Meet. The study aims to assess whether structured breastfeeding education can influence prenatal and paternal attachment in first-time parents.

Detailed Description

Background: Breastfeeding education is recognized as an important factor supporting mother-infant bonding. However, there is limited research on the impact of such education on prenatal bonding for both mothers and fathers, especially among first-time parents (primiparous). Understanding how breastfeeding education influences prenatal attachment in this group is crucial for enhancing parental bonding and early family health.

Aim: This study aims to evaluate the effect of breastfeeding education on prenatal bonding in primiparous parents, focusing on both maternal and paternal attachment.

Method: A total of 101 primiparous parents participated in the study, with 52 in the experimental group and 49 in the control group. Pregnant women completed the Prenatal Attachment Scale before and after receiving breastfeeding education, while expectant fathers completed the Paternal Antenatal Attachment Scale pre- and post-education. Participants were recruited using non-probability and snowball sampling methods, and the education sessions were delivered online via Google Meet.
