Detailed description: This study is a randomized controlled experimental study conducted to determine the effect of applied breastfeeding training given through Lactation Simulation Model (LSM) in antenatal period on the success of women in breastfeeding, their self-efficacy perception regarding breastfeeding and their attitude towards and knowledge of breastfeeding. The research was carried out with the participation of two groups. In this context, applied breastfeeding training with LSM was given to pregnant women in the intervention group (simulation training group, n=64) during antenatal period, and standard training-video training under the hospital protocol (video training group, n = 64) was provided to pregnant women in the control group. Then, breastfeeding success, breastfeeding self efficacy, attitude and knowledge levels regarding breastfeeding were evaluated in the postnatal period. The data of the research were collected through Participant Description Questionnaire, LATCH Assessment Tool, Breastfeeding Attitude and Knowledge Questionnaire, Breastfeeding Self efﬁcacy Scale and Postnatal Period Follow-up Questionnaire. In addition, LSM was employed in the implementation for the simulation training group. Research data were analyzed by using SPSS 23.0 statistics program.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

Exclusion Criteria:

Breastfeeding contraindications Having a high-risk pregnancy Preterm delivery (before 37 weeks of gestation) Having a health condition that prevents breastfeeding in the newborn after birth Having mental disability and serious mental disorder Women with multiple pregnancies were excluded from the study.

Primary outcomes:
measure: LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnostic and Assessment Scale
timeFrame: The scale was filled twice, with an average of two hours, in the first 24 hours after delivery, when the mother was free of pain and felt well.
Secondary outcomes:
measure: Breastfeeding Attitude and Knowledge Questionnaire
timeFrame: It was applied both in the antenatal period (at 32-36 weeks of pregnancy) and in the postnatal 24 hours.
measure: Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form
timeFrame: It was applied both in the antenatal period (at 32-36 weeks of pregnancy) and in the postnatal 24 hours.
