Interventions to Promote Breastfeeding
Title: Mother's Milk Messaging
PI: Maya Bunik, MD
Summary: The objectives for this project are to
evaluate a bilingual
English-Spanish tailored text messages and online support system to
support exclusive
and continuous breastfeeding for new mothers--comparing texting alone,
texting
with an online support group to those with usual care, to determine the
cost involved in moderating the online groups and providing
bidirectional consultation when needed and to obtain qualitative
feedback from a subset of mothers in both intervention groups to
determine what was effective, as well as suggestions for
improvement of the messaging program.
