Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find that the offer of expressed human milk after feedings in the first 48 hours postpartum favors the maintenance of the glycemic level of children of diabetic mothers and the rate of exclusive breastfeeding at hospital discharge.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary outcome is to verify whether milk extraction affects the time of Lactogenesis II and the rate of breastfeeding at seven and 30 days postpartum.
