Data were collected using a self-report questionnaire for mothers¡¯ and babies¡¯ demographic variables, maternal role adjustments, parenting stresses, and maternal breastfeeding adaptations.
Results: Higher levels of maternal adaptations and low levels of parenting stresses were associated with greater maternal breastfeeding adaptations. Types of feeding during hospital stays and baby¡¯s health status at birth were also associated with maternal breastfeeding adaptation.
