The assignment of the participants to the experimental and control groups by the block randomization method according to the randomization list made by a statistician independent of the researcher. The group distribution created by the statistician was delivered to the researcher in pre-prepared numbered opaque envelopes. The opaque envelope was opened after the consent of the women who applied to the hospital with a gestational pregnancy of 27-40 weeks, the inclusion criteria are evaluated, and the "Sociodemographic Information Form", "Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short Form-Antenatal Form", and "Baby Nutrition Attitude Scale" are applied. 60 women, who was randomly selected from the population, was randomly assigned as 30 experimental groups and 30 control groups.
