There is a lack of correct, similar and evidence-based information about breastfeeding in
primary care and hospital settings. According to mothers, the most difficult thing about
breastfeeding are the many contradictory advice. Literature shows there is a clear link
between positive breastfeeding figures and the fact that mothers received prenatal education.
A lot of research as been done on the effect of prenatal preparation, but not on the quality of
information, the used methods and material. Adults learn best with a combination of three
methods, explanation, the use of visual material and practical exercises.
Ready-made educational packages for giving a prenatal workshop, information session or to
be used during the prenatal or postnatal consultation need to meet the needs parents that
appears from the literature. A realistic picture of breastfeeding need to be given in a fresh,
timeless way. The educational material also need be used during consultations where
language is a problem due to its clear images and few words.A variety of material and
methods, like pictures and movies, interaction and explanation, need to be done.
