ABSTRACT: Objective
To determine the effectiveness of a single session of prenatal motivational interviewing (MI) to enhance breastfeeding outcomes.Design
A randomized controlled trial with two groups (MI and psychoeducation) with repeated measures: preintervention, postintervention, and at 1 month postpartum.Setting
The intervention was conducted at a university-associated clinic, community locations, and participants' homes. Postpartum follow-up was conducted by telephone.Participants
A total of 81 women with low-risk pregnancies enrolled at 28 to 39 weeks gestation who lived in Appalachia.Methods
Participants were randomly assigned to MI or psychoeducation on infant development. Pre- and postintervention outcome measures included intention to breastfeed, confidence in and importance of breastfeeding plan, and breastfeeding attitudes. At 1 month postpartum, participants completed a telephone interview to assess actual breastfeeding initiation, exclusivity, and plans to continue breastfeeding.Results
At 1 month postpartum, women in the MI group were more likely to report any current breastfeeding than women in the psychoeducation group, regardless of parity, χ2(1, N = 79) = 4.30, p = .040, Φ = .233. At the postintervention time point, the MI intervention had a significant effect on improving attitudes about breastfeeding among primiparous women only (p < .05).Conclusion
One session of MI was effective to promote breastfeeding at 1 month postpartum and to enhance positive attitudes toward breastfeeding among primiparous women in Appalachia.
