emotional freedom technique experimental group

Participants in the experimental group, who had a cesarean delivery on the first postpartum day, filled out the sociodemographic and obstetric information form and the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale, and then were asked to breastfeed their babies and their breastfeeding was evaluated with the Bristol Breastfeeding Evaluation Scale. The participant was then asked to score her breastfeeding between 0 and 10 to evaluate her Subjective Units of Disturbance Scala (SUD) score. The next evaluation was made 2 hours after the participant received breastfeeding training, the Bristol Breastfeeding Rating Scale score was obtained, and the SUD was scored again after 2 rounds of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) application. Finally, at the end of the day, 2 rounds of EFT application were performed by taking the SUD score before the EFT session, and after the application, the participant's Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale, Bristol Breastfeeding Evaluation Scale and SUD scores were recorded.
