Abstract ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION: Breastfeeding takes the place of this attachment after the baby is born. The natural method of nourishing a newborn is through breastfeeding. Breastfeeding is the healthiest nourishment for a newborn and also helps to protect them from a variety of health issues. A special link is formed between a breastfeeding mother and her child
AIM: Aim of the study is to find out the effectiveness of Hoffman’s exercise v/s syringe techniques on level of successful breastfeeding among antenatal mothers with flat and retracted nipples.
METHODOLOGY: A quasi experimental two group pre-test and post-test design was adopted. The 60 primipara mother with flat and retracted nipple was selected from postnatal ward at Svbch, Silvassa.” through Non probability purposive sampling techniques, 30 sample for Hoffman exercise and 30 sample for syringe technique.
RESULT: Study result shows that in group –I pre-test value 2(6.7%) have high risk and 28(93.3%) have moderate risk and in group-II pre-test value 2(6.7%) have high risk and 28(93.3%) have moderate risk. Hoffman's exercise group the overall mean pre-test score was 3.4 ± 0.62 and post-test mean score was 7.83 ± 0.69 revealing the difference in mean score percentage of 44%. Syringe technique group the overall mean pre-test score was 3.47 ± 0.68 and post-test mean score was 7.8 ± 0.81 revealing the difference in mean score percentage of 43. Significant difference was found between area wise and overall scores of post-test between Hoffman's exercise and Syringe technique group (t = 0.171) at p< 0.05 level. There is no significance association between level of successful breastfeeding in Hoffman's exercise and syringe technique of pre-test among selected socio- demographic variable with clinical variable among primipara mother.
CONCLUSION: On the basis of the present study, it can be concluded, Hoffman’s exercise and syringe technique is safe, simple and painless, it will helpful for level successful breastfeeding among primipara mothers with flat and retracted nipple.
