Lack of breast milk intake in newborns is a serious health problem in Indonesia. Moringa (Moringa oleifera) is a plant rich in nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and minerals, and has been traditionally used to enhance breast milk production. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of moringa pudding on increasing breast milk production in postpartum women. A qualitative research method was employed, conducted in Loa Bakung, Sungai Kunjang District, Samarinda City. Data collection techniques included in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. The collected data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which involves data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicated that breast milk production increased by 150 cc in the group given Moringa Leaf Pudding. Initially, the milk production was minimal, and after the intervention, there was a notable increase. The minimum milk production observed was 0.00 cc, while the maximum reached 150 cc. This study concludes that Moringa Leaf Pudding can effectively increase breast milk production in postpartum women, suggesting its potential as a beneficial intervention.
