A quasi-experimental design was used to determine the effect of prenatal breastfeeding education on maternal reports of success in breastfeeding and maternal perception of the infant. The sample consisted of 40 primiparous women who desired to breastfeed their infants. All subjects were enrolled to attend childbirth education classes and vaginally delivered full-term, healthy infants without complication. Twenty subjects attended a prenatal breastfeeding education class and 20 served as controls. Data revealed that primiparous women who received prenatal breastfeeding education reported a significantly higher frequency of success in breastfeeding than those who did not (P = 0.01). There was a significant difference in the Neonatal Perception Inventory (NPI) I scores of experimental and control subjects at one to two days postpartum (P = 0.05). The NPI II scores of the experimental mothers were significantly more positive at one month postpartum (P = 0.001). Primiparous women who received prenatal breastfeeding education reported significantly more positive NPI II scores than the control group (P = 0.001).
采用准实验设计来确定产前母乳喂养教育对母亲母乳喂养成功报告及母亲对婴儿认知的影响。样本包括40名希望母乳喂养其婴儿的初产妇。所有受试者均登记参加分娩教育课程，并经阴道足月分娩健康婴儿，无并发症。20名受试者参加了产前母乳喂养教育课程，20名作为对照组。数据显示，接受产前母乳喂养教育的初产妇报告的母乳喂养成功频率显著高于未接受教育的初产妇（P = 0.01）。产后1至2天，实验组和对照组新生儿认知量表（NPI）I得分存在显著差异（P = 0.05）。产后1个月，实验组母亲的NPI II得分显著更积极（P = 0.001）。接受产前母乳喂养教育的初产妇报告的NPI II得分显著比对照组更积极（P = 0.001）。
