Article Synopsis
- This study evaluates how expecting mothers' knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs influence their intention to exclusively breastfeed, highlighting the potential of mobile health (mHealth) as an affordable educational tool.
- Initial findings show that while 67% of mothers had some awareness about breastfeeding, only 46.1% planned to start exclusive breastfeeding, with many lacking support and resources.
- After watching an educational video, a significant increase in positive intentions to breastfeed exclusively was observed, especially among older mothers with previous knowledge and openness to expert advice.
