What Is Already Known About This Topic?: Several studies have reported that maternal antenatal intention to breastfeed is a strong predictor of actual breastfeeding duration. However, little research has investigated whether maternal postpartum intention also extends breastfeeding duration.

What Is Added By This Report?: Maternal postpartum intention to breastfeed was a protective factor for extending actual breastfeeding duration after controlling potential confounders.

What Are The Implications For Public Health Practice?: It is crucial to address and promote intrinsic and extrinsic factors that influence a mother's intention to breastfeed after delivery, thereby extending the actual breastfeeding duration.

Objectives: Our goal was to measure the impact of postpartum implant insertion timing on breastfeeding success and duration in a population at high-risk for low milk supply.

Study Design: We conducted a three-armed randomized non-inferiority study of postpartum people who plan to breastfeed and have known risk factors for low milk supply. Participants were randomized to one of three groups for the timing of implant placement: within 30 minutes of placental delivery, 24-72 hours postpartum, or 6+ weeks postpartum.

Article Synopsis
  • Early formula supplementation (EFS) right after birth is linked to higher maternal obesity and lower rates of breastfeeding, yet the impact of a mother’s intention to breastfeed during pregnancy is not well-researched.
  • * The study aimed to analyze how EFS affects breastfeeding outcomes while considering obesity and other factors like sociodemographics and health.
  • * Results indicate that EFS has a lesser negative effect on breastfeeding among mothers who strongly intend to breastfeed, regardless of their body mass index (BMI).*
