Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Resources Development Nurse Consultancy Program (EMÖZGEDAP), based on Dennis's Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Theory along with the hypno-breastfeeding philosophy given to mothers and family relatives, on social support perception, breastfeeding self-efficacy and outcomes. The study will involve pregnant women and close others assigned randomly to the intervention (n=50) or control (n=50) groups in a state hospital in Turkey. Individual counseling will be provided to the intervention group within the scope of the EMÖZGEDAP, based on Denis's Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy theory and hypnobreastfeeding philosophy. EMÖZGEDAP, which will be applied to pregnant women and their family relatives, will consist of 5 sessions lasting 7.5 hours (2 sessions with the woman and her family relatives, two sessions with the woman alone, and one with her family relatives alone). The Antenatal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale will be evaluated before the counseling program is given in the antepartum period. Breastfeeding and Nutrition Results, Postpartum Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale, Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale for Fathers, Assessment Scale for Perceived Support of Close Others in Relation to Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy and Scale of Perception of Close Others' Support For Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy will be evaluated at the 1st, 3rd, and 6th months postpartum.

Nurse Consultancy Program to Develop Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Resources

Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Resources Developing Nurse Consultancy Program (EMÖZGEDAP) was developed based on Denis's Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy theory along with the hypnobreastfeeding philosophy. In the individual counseling program focusing on the philosophy of hypnobreastfeeding, it will be emphasized that breastfeeding is an intuitive, natural, and unique process. Techniques such as affirmations, breathing exercises, relaxation, endorphin, serotonin, and oxytocin-enhancing practices will be used. Concepts from Dennis' breastfeeding self-efficacy theory will be integrated into the training program. The individual counseling program will be carried out by adult education criteria, methods such as slide presentation, three-dimensional models, video, role-play, peer opinions with positive breastfeeding experiences, case discussion, and question and answer will be used.
