Lactation counseling is a skilled practice that assists the mother-infant dyad in the art of breastfeeding. It aims to help mothers find a comfortable way to breastfeed. It begins during the prenatal period when the nurse makes the first contact with the expectant woman. Breastfeeding therapy for mothers is then continued in the postnatal ward. Given that the postnatal period is when the mother is keen to receive information about her baby's health, it is an ideal period for nurses to encourage and train them in breastfeeding. This survey is intended to gather a few details about nursing and lactation care.
