Official title
Enhancing Breastfeeding Initiation, Exclusivity, and Duration: Effects of Prenatal Lactation-Focused Motivational Interviewing
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Breastfeeding is good for the health of both mother and baby, but many women do not breastfeed, or do not breastfeed for as long as the participant would like. The purpose of this study is to compare two types of interventions on how each impacts breastfeeding. The interventions will be given during the third trimester of pregnancy, and the intervention is individual (i.e., one therapist and one participant). The first intervention is Motivational Interviewing, a type of counseling. The second intervention, or "control group," is education on how babies grow and develop. There general aims of this study are to compare women in the Motivational Interviewing group and control group on how the participants plan to feed the babies, how much the participants learn about and the participants opinions about breastfeeding, and how much the participants learn about how babies grow and develop. In addition, the groups will be compared as to whether the participants start breastfeeding, and how the participants are feeding the baby when the baby is one month old.
