Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Breastfeeding Diagnostic and Evaluation Scale	1 month	LATCH is a breastfeeding charting system that provides a systematic method for gathering information about individual breastfeeding sessions. The system assigns a numerical score, 0, 1, or 2, to five key components of breastfeeding. Each letter of the acronym LATCH denotes an area of assessment. "L" is for how well the infant latches onto the breast. "A" is for the amount of audible swallowing noted. "T" is for the mother's nipple type. "C" is for the mother's level of comfort. "H" is for the amount of help the mother needs to hold her infant to the breast. The minimum point is 0 and maximum point is 10. The highest 10 points to be obtained from the scale are taken, and a high score indicates good breastfeeding success.
Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale short form	1 month	The questionnaire is a 14-item self-administered instrument derived from the original 33-items, that measures breastfeeding confidence. All items are preceded on a 5-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 to 5. Total scores range from 14 to 70, with higher scores reflecting more significant levels of breastfeeding self-efficacy.
Infant Nutrition Attitude Scale	1 month	The scale is composed of 17 items with a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 to 5. The total IIFAS score can range from 17 to 85 with higher scores reflecting positive attitude towards breastfeeding. Total IIFAS scores can be further categorized into groups: 1) positive to breastfeeding (IIFAS score 70-85), 2) neutral (IIFAS score 49-69), and 3) positive to formula feeding (IIFAS score 17-48).
