Several strategies to increase the duration of breast feeding have been used. Strategy tested vary in timing (antenatal or postnatal), is lactation consultant or peer support program. Thus, the current study has been performed to investigate the effect of peer support program on the prolanged breastfeeding pattern and duration.
Methods: In this randomized clinical study, 240primiparous women were participated. Control group included the routine trainings and intervention group program included the routine trainings plus the support from the 30 peer support during the 6 months after delivery. Feeding pattern and duration were evaluated by the end of The1, 2, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after birth. Data were collected by questionnaire and were analyzed with chi- square, fisher and t-test tests.
Results: Exclusive breast feeding rates was significantly higher in intervention group than control in the first, second, third and six months postpartum (P = 0.001). significantly more mothers in the intervention group than The control group continued to breast feed at 12 and 24 months after birth (% 89.9, 82 v 52.3 , 27% P = 0.001).
Conclusions: The results of this study indicated the peer support intervention was succeed in improving exclusive breastfeeding rate and duration.
