Breastfeeding Failure: Influence of Smartphone Use and Distraction Factors

The benefits of breastfeeding no longer need to be proven. Many studies have shown its positives effects on both infants and mothers. Exclusive breastfeeding is thus recommended within the first six months of life.

Excessive screen use has been shown to be harmful in many aspects of daily life. The impact upon the relation between mother and newborn infant is poorly studied.

The study aims to evaluate the impact of the use of smartphones on the success and duration of breastfeeding.
