Brief summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the effects of birth practices such as cesarean section and vacuum assisted birth and diseases such as gestational diabetes and preeclampsia on exclusive breastfeeding. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does cesarean section, vacuum assisted birth, gestational diabetes and preeclampsia affect exclusive breastfeeding three months after birth? Participants answer eight online survey questions. One survey is distributed before birth and the remaining seven surveys are distributed after birth at three, seven and four-teen days, as well as one, three, six and twelve months after birth.
