| Abstract | Objective: To compare the effect of cesarean section to women milk supply, latch score at the1 st and 48th hour postpartum with vaginal route delivery.Material and Methods: Two hundred pregnant women with uncomplicated delivery from June 1 toSeptember 30, 2014 at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Borabue Hospital, wereincluded. In Group 1 (n=100), the vaginal route group consisted of parturients who had vaginaldelivery. In Group 2 (n=100), the cesarean section group consisted of parturients who hadcesarean section. Both groups were assessed for milk supply and latch score at the 1 st and48th hour postpartum.Results: There were no difference in milk supply at the 1 st and 48th hour postpartum betweenthe two groups (p = 0.595 and p = 0.790, respectively). Latch score at the 1 st hour postpartumin vaginal delivery group was significantly higher than one in cesarean section group(p = 0.000). However, Latch score at the 48th hour postpartum was not statistically different inboth groups (p = 0.285).Conclusion: It is not the method of delivery that inflences milk supply at the 1 st and 48th hourpostpartum but rather the Latch score at the 1 st hour in cesarean section that is lower thanvaginal delivery group. Health providers need to support the message that milk supply is notaffected by method of delivery. |
