Breastfeeding information in pharmacology textbooks: a content analysis.
The objective of this study was to review information provided about breastfeeding in commonly used pharmacology textbooks. We asked 15 Australian universities teaching pharmacy courses to provide a list of recommended pharmacology textbooks in 2011. Ten universities responded, generating a list of 11 textbooks that we analysed for content relating to breastfeeding. Pharmacology textbooks outline the mechanisms of actions of medicines and their use: however, only a small emphasis is placed on the safety/compatibility of medicines for women during breastfeeding. Current pharmacology textbooks recommended by Australian unive...

Breastfeeding after a cesarean section: A literature review
CONCLUSION: C-section is thought to be related to the initiation and duration of breastfeeding. In comparison with natural childbirth, C-section can delay the start of breastfeeding and shorten the duration of exclusive breastfeeding. Moreover, the planned C-section is considered the most critical factor affecting breastfeeding. Also, breastfeeding initiatives are highly recommended to support mothers who have a C-section. According to the literature, different regions and populations may have distinct experiences of breastfeeding. Therefore, future research is required to identify breastfeeding support for diverse populat...

Implications of Ankyloglossia on Breastfeeding
Conclusion: More research is necessary on effects of breastfeeding difficulties of infants with ankyloglossia on the mother–infant relationship. A reliable screening tool needs to be developed and validated. Education for nurses to assess infants with ankyloglossia in a systematic fashion should be explored. Investigation of psychological sequelae, including maternal stress, postpartum depression, and mother–infant bonding is an important next step in the research of infants with ankyloglossia.

Nurses should tailor assessment of each breastfeeding mother-baby couplet and associated interventions based on these findings.

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 4115: Predictors of Prenatal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy in Expectant Mothers with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
This study aimed to measure breastfeeding self-efficacy among expectant mothers with GDM and quantify its determinants. This cross-sectional study recruited expectant mothers with GDM from an antenatal care clinic and queried them on breastfeeding knowledge and attitudes using the Arabic validated prenatal breastfeeding self-efficacy scale (PBSES). The study took place at the Medical City of King Saud University, during January–April 2021. The average PBSES score among 145 GDM Saudi participants was 64.07 ± 16.3.

Comparison of Breastfeeding Success by Mode of Delivery
Conclusion Women who deliver by cesarean section, despite the presence or absence of labor, are less likely to maintain exclusive breastfeeding postpartum and are more likely to require formula supplementation. These women may need more support with breastfeeding after surgery in order to experience similar benefits for neonatal growth and weight gain.

"Frustrated," "Depressed," and "Devastated" Pediatric Trainees: US Academic Medical Centers Fail to Provide Adequate Workplace Breastfeeding Support
Conclusion: A majority of respondents cited problems with breastfeeding support during training, and many failed to meet their intended goals.

Breastfeeding and child development outcomes: an investigation of the nurturing hypothesis
This study investigated whether the nurturing hypothesis – that breastfeeding serves as a proxy for family socio‐economic characteristics and parenting behaviours – accounts for the association of breastfeeding with children's academic abilities. Data used were from the Child Development Supplement of the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, which followed up a cohort of 3563 children aged 0–12 in 1997. Structural equation modelling simultaneously regressed outcome variables, including three test scores of academic ability and two subscales of behaviour problems, on the presence and duration of breastfeeding, family soc...

Online Continuing Education for Expanding Clinicians' Roles in Breastfeeding Support
Lack of health professional support is an important variable affecting mothers’ achievement of breastfeeding goals. Online continuing education is a recognized pathway for disseminating content for improving clinicians’ knowledge and supporting efforts to change practices. At the time we developed our project, free, accredited continuing education for physicians related to breastfeeding management that could be easily accessed using portable devices (via tablets/smartphones) was not available. Such resources were in demand, especially for facilities pursuing designation through the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initia...

Infant Sleep Location and Breastfeeding Practices in the United States: 2011 - 2014
Conclusion Many mothers have not adopted the recommended infant sleep location or feeding practices. Receiving advice from multiple sources appears to promote adherence in a dose response manner. Many women are able to both breastfeed and room share without bed sharing, and advice to adhere to both of these recommendations did not decrease breastfeeding rates.
