“…Even on the first day, although there is only a tiny amount of breast milk coming out; the mother must continue breastfeeding. This action is intended to provide nutrition to the baby, so that the baby learns to breastfeed or get used to sucking the mother's nipples and enhancing the production of breast milk (Lojander et al, 2022). Honey has been examined to increase the volume of breast milk within ten days of postpartum (Mandey et al, 2015).…”

Breast milk is the best nutrient to reduce the pain in nursing mothers and death in infants. However, for nursing mothers, too little milk volume is the cause of problems occurring during the breastfeeding process. Thus, mothers who breastfeed should consume foods that can increase the breast milk volume. One food frequently consumed by mothers to increase breast milk is honey. In fact, natural honey is challenging to discover, and the price is also high which makes it as an obstacle. A more economical alternative is required, one of which is black cumin. It is easy to obtain and the price is also affordable. Black cumin also contains galactagogue to increase prolactin that influences breast milk production. The objective of this study is to identify the effect of black cumin on the volume of breast milk. The study was a randomized controlled trial involving 60 breastfeeding mothers divided into intervention groups and control groups. The intervention group was provided 15 grams of black cumin brewed with 1000C boiling water as much as 200 ml, and the control group was assigned 15 grams of pure honey brewed boiling 1000C as much as 200 ml. Intervention and control were administered on the second day to the day of completion after giving birth. They were measuring instruments which accustomed to measure breast milk pumps. Bivariate analysis employing the Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney tests presented a significant difference between the volume of breast milk (p = 0.001) of the control and intervention groups. This study recommends the application of black cumin as a strategy to increase the volume of breast milk in nursing mothers.

“…Breastfeeding support offered to mothers varied between the studies; some were offered a telephone number whereas others were referred to breastfeeding support groups; however, support provided at discharge was not systematically organized. Although most mothers received a phone number, they could use to seek support, only a minority of mothers were informed about breastfeeding support groups at hospital discharge ( Lojander et al., 2022 ). Birth hospitals struggle with implementing this practice (step 10) ( WHO, 2018 ) although ensuring the continuity of support after hospital discharge leads to improved breastfeeding outcomes and thus should be considered important for the continuation of breastfeeding ( Peréz-Escamilla et al., 2016 ).…”

“…The high degree of satisfaction found in this study shows that mothers had a positive experience during hospitalization, which leads to better health outcomes and success regarding breastfeeding, in agreement with results found in Italy 30 . In Finland, a study from a mothers' perspective showed a positive impact of the actions developed in the Rooming-In area after adherence to the BFHI in supporting breastfeeding 31 .…”

Objective: to describe the practices that favor breastfeeding performed in the Rooming-In area and satisfaction with the care received according to discharge on exclusive breastfeeding. Method: a quantitative study conducted between July 2020 and September 2021 in a maternity teaching hospital from southern Brazil; a total of 756 puerperal women participated by means of an online questionnaire 20 days after hospital discharge. The data were analyzed in a descriptive way with absolute and relative frequencies, and the chi-square test was applied to verify any statistical difference according to the “discharge on exclusive breastfeeding” outcome. Results: the prevalence of discharge on exclusive breastfeeding was 85.0% and the practices that presented and association with the outcome were guidelines regarding the breastfeeding readiness signs (69.0% versus 57.5%), correct position and latch (94.1% versus 86.7%), free demand (79.2% versus 69.0%), exclusive breastfeeding until the sixth month of life and complemented until two years of age (77.9% versus 67.3%); and the practice of not offering other milk during hospitalization (88.5% versus 17.1%). Satisfaction with the care received was high (95.0%) and presented no association with the outcome of “discharge on exclusive breastfeeding”. Conclusion: most of the women treated had access to the practices that favor breastfeeding, and education in health exerted a positive impact on exclusive breastfeeding at hospital discharge.
