Empowering pregnant women's families in preparation for breastfeeding: Scoping review
Keywords:
Family empowerment, Support for pregnant women, breastfeeding support, breastfeeding preparationAbstract
The World Health Organization and UNICEF recommend exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of a baby's life to achieve optimal health and survival benefits, data on global exclusive breastfeeding coverage continues to increase towards the 50% target in 2025, reaching around 48% in 2022-2023, and still needs to be strengthened to achieve the WHO 2030 target of 70%. One of the reasons for the low exclusive breastfeeding rate in South Sumatra is the lack of support from husbands and families. Family support is a crucial factor in the success of exclusive breastfeeding. The purpose of this scoping review is to examine family empowerment in the context of supporting pregnant women in preparing for breastfeeding. This scoping review method uses the PICO framework and identifies articles using inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study found 7 articles and 5 themes. These themes are family support, husband's support, health worker support, knowledge, and attitudes of pregnant women. This research is expected to be a consideration for relevant health workers in providing counseling and education to pregnant women and family members regarding breastfeeding support.
