| Abstract | Objectives: To study the time to onset of lactation (OL) when using an electric breast pump comparedwith conventional breastfeeding in post-cesarean women.Materials and Methods: Thirty-four post-cesarean women under spinal block were randomized intotwo groups: the electric breast pump group (i.e. conventional breastfeeding combined withelectric breast pump) and the conventional breastfeeding group. The electric breast pump groupstarted using the electric breast pump within 3 hours of operation, 15 min for each pumpingsession, every 3 hours after breastfeeding until time to OL. The conventional breastfeedinggroup breastfed on demand at least 8 times in 24 hours. Post-cesarean women recorded timeto OL by maternal perception when they had any one signs and/or symptoms of breast fullness,breast tingling, milk leakage.Results: The time to OL in the electric breast pump group was significantly earlier than in theconventional breastfeeding group (43.8 ? 11.0 hours versus 68.3 ? 19.9 hours, respectively,p < 0.001). Maternal nipple pain after immediate use of the electric breast pump and breastfeeding(p = 0.74), and length of hospital stay (p = 0.88) were not statistically significant between groups.Conclusion: Post-cesarean women in the electric breast pump group had significantly earlier timeto OL compared with women in the conventional breastfeeding group. |
