Brief summary: Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of breastfeeding education based on the Health Belief Model during the antenatal period on couples' perception and self-efficacy regarding breast milk.

Detailed description: Introduction: It is known that breast milk is crucial for newborns and infants. The Health Belief Model has been widely used in recent years to improve and promote health behaviors.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of breastfeeding education based on the Health Belief Model during the antenatal period on couples' perception and self-efficacy regarding breast milk.

Method: This randomized controlled study was conducted between June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022, at the Dr. Selahattin Cizrelioğlu State Hospital in Şırnak. A total of 220 participants, including 110 couples who met the inclusion criteria, were randomly assigned to an intervention group (55 couples) and a control group (55 couples). Data were collected using a "Participant Information Form" for socio-demographic and obstetric information, the "Adults' Perception of Breast Milk Scale" for assessing perception related to breast milk, the "Pregnancy Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale- Short Form" for evaluating mothers' breastfeeding self-efficacy during the antenatal period, and the "Paternal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale" for assessing fathers' breastfeeding self-efficacy during the pregnancy period.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Those aged 18 and over
* Living in the same house with his/her spouse
* Able to speak and understand Turkish
* In the 27th week of pregnancy and above
* Having a first pregnancy
* Using a phone
* Couples willing to participate in the research

Exclusion Criteria:

* multiparous
* Receiving psychiatric or neurological treatment that affects cooperation and cognitive functions

Primary outcomes:
measure: Mothers' and fathers' perception of breast milk, assessed using the Adults' Breast Milk Perception Scale.
timeFrame: 30 days
Secondary outcomes:
measure: Breastfeeding self-efficacy of mothers evaluated using the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form during Pregnancy
timeFrame: 30 days
Other outcomes:
measure: Paternal breastfeeding self-efficacy assessed using the Paternal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale.
timeFrame: 30 days
