Scoping Review of Breastfeeding Mothers' Efforts to Increase Breast Milk Production

Abstract

Breast milk is a natural nutrition passed down from the mother to the infant that benefits both the breastfeeding mother and the baby. Scientific research on the benefits of nursing for mothers and newborns has heightened the importance of exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life. However, coverage of exclusively breastfed newborns in some Indonesian regions remains below the objective of 40%. This shows that hurdles to exclusive breastfeeding remain unresolved. According to community polls, a lack of confidence in producing enough breast milk can undermine the success of exclusive breastfeeding. As a result, efforts should be undertaken to boost breast milk production. As a result, the purpose of this article is to identify the available information on initiatives to boost breastmilk supply in breastfeeding women.
