Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increase self-efficacy scores of lactating women to breastfeed at the second, fourth and octave week postpartum, evaluated through: application of Mann-Whitney test to compare the mean scores of the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale- Short Form; risk relative calculation to estimate the intervention's effect in the breastfeeding scores, categorized in high and medium self-efficacy to breastfeeding, considering the level of significance in 5% of analyses.;Comparing the self-efficacy scores to breastfeed before and after the educative intervention we observed statistically diference in the mean scores of the Breastfeeding Self-efficacy Scale- Short Form between women in the intervention group (56 women) and control group (56 women) (p<0,001) at second, fourth and octave week postpartum. At the octave week we observed increase in the proportions of women with high efficacy in the intervention group with statistically significant diference between the groups (p<0,001). The probability of women in the intervention group to reach high efficacy scores was 1,4 higher then the women in the control group, at the octave week postpartum. | — |

|---|---|
| Increase the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding in the first two months of the child's life evaluated through risk relative to estimate the educative intervention's effect considering the level of significance of 5% in the analyses.;The results showed statistically diference (p<0,001) between the breastfeeding rates in the intervention group and control group, with risk relative of 2,2 by comparing the breastfeeding rates between women in the intervention group and control group at the octave week postpartum. | — |
