Detailed description: 
      This study was conducted in a randomized controlled type to examine the effect of infant yoga
      practiced by mothers on infants' sleep duration, maternal attachment and breastfeeding. The
      enrollment, assignment, follow-up and analysis steps of the trial were demonstrated using
      CONSORT 2018 (Updated Guidelines for Reporting Randomized Parallel Group Studies).

      While the population of the study consisted of mothers and babies who gave birth in the
      Haseki Training and Research Hospital Obstetrics Clinic, the minimum sample number was
      calculated using G Power. Accordingly, it was found that the number of samples to be taken
      was 68 for each group, a total of 136 mothers and their babies. Considering that there would
      be losses, the sample was planned to be 150 mothers and their babies, 75 for each group.

      Sample Selection Criteria

        -  Babies born at term (37-40 weeks of gestation)

        -  In the first postpartum week,

        -  Healthy and singleton newborns were included. Sample Exclusion Criteria

        -  Babies staying in the postnatal intensive care unit,

        -  The mother has a physical disability,

        -  The mother has a psychiatric illness,

        -  Being pregnant using assisted reproductive techniques,

        -  Not included if the mother or baby has a disability related to breastfeeding

      Data Collection Tools The data of the study were obtained by using the Data Collection Form,
      Postnatal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form, Mother-Infant Attachment Scale, and
      Sleep Diary.

      Data Collection Stages Stage 1: 150 mothers and their babies who met the sample selection
      criteria were included in the study in the first postpartum week. Mothers were randomized
      into two groups as intervention and control. Data Collection Form, Postnatal Breastfeeding
      Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form, Mother-Infant Attachment Scale, and Sleep Diary were
      administered to all mothers.

      Stage 2: Intervention Group: A mother-baby yoga video prepared by the researchers was sent to
      the mothers in the intervention group. Before the mothers yoga practice, a 10-minute training
      was given about mother-baby yoga. Mothers were asked to do yoga at least 3 times a week for 4
      weeks. Counseling and follow-up of the process were carried out by a researcher by calling
      the mothers once a week.
