Summary

It was observed that premature babies had the risk of insufficient milk intake and a lower rate of breastfeeding compared to term babies. Various problems may occur at home, especially after breastfeeding training in the hospital. After discharge, support and counseling should be provided to eliminate problems that may stop breastfeeding or to prevent events that may prevent breastfeeding. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of "Telephone Breastfeeding Support" given to mothers of premature babies discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit on breastfeeding results.
