Abstract

Breast care for postpartum mothers can prevent various problems such as mastitis, blocked milk ducts, and breast infections. Healthy breasts support smooth breastfeeding which also affects the well-being of the baby. The motivation of postpartum mothers to carry out breast care is influenced by the knowledge they have and their attitudes towards breast care itself. Good knowledge will encourage a positive attitude, which then increases the motivation to take actions that are beneficial for breast health.
