Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the relationships between pre-pregnancy body mass index, breastfeeding frequency, time to initial breastfeeding, infant breastfeeding behavior, breastfeeding knowledge, and perceived insufficient milk supply among mothers with cesarean sections. The sample was 85 mothers with cesarean section at Nakhon Phanom Hospital. Data were collected using the Personal Data Record Form,the Breastfeeding Knowledge Questionnaire, the Infant Breastfeeding Assessment Tool,and the H & H Lactation Scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and Spearman's correlation coefficient. The results revealed that breastfeeding frequency, infant breastfeeding behavior, and breastfeeding knowledge were negatively correlated with perceived insufficient milk supply with statistical significance. The pre-pregnancy body mass index and the breastfeeding initiation were positively correlated with perceived insufficient milk supply with statistical significance.Thus, nurse midwives should provide breastfeeding knowledge, encourage the babies to start sucking for the first time as soon as possible, increase the frequency of breastfeeding every 2-3 hours, and help the babies to have effective sucking behavior. It is expected that these strategies can help mothers with cesarean sections are successful in breastfeeding
