Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

The educational programme on sustainable and healthy diet and breastfeeding

The educational programme on sustainable and healthy diet and breastfeeding: In the interventional group the educational programme of sustainable diet and breastfeeding will be provided before the delivery to see the impact on the prevalence of the breastfeeding at 1 and 6 months after delivery (compared with the group of control, without intervention)

Study summary

Breastfeeding is the healthiest form of nutrition for the baby and is recommended to use exclusive breastfeeding (EB) until 6 months. The environmental footprint of artificial lactation (AL) has been studied, but that of EB is unknown.

Objectives:

The main objective of the first phase of the study is to identify the environmental impact in terms of the carbon footprint of breastfeeding and artificial breastfeeding, taking into account the accessories necessary for breastfeeding and of the diet and the factors associated with the diet of postpartum women in first month of life of the babies.

The main objective of the second phase is to evaluate the impact of a standardized intervention of educational programme on sustainable breastfeeding, diet and environment protection, providing inputs obtained from the first phase on the carbon footprint in the first month of life of the child and the prevalence of breastfeeding at the first month of the baby's life.

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Rates (number of participants, %) that use breastfeeding (exclusive) up to 6 months after the delivery — months 30-36 of the project life
    The rate of breastfeeding (exclusive) will be observed up to 6 months after the participant's baby delivery and calucalted as a percentage or fraction compared to all participants: at month of the delivery (0 month) and 1, 3 and 6 months after the delivery (giving a birth)
  • Rates (number of participants, %) that use EB (excusive breastfeeding) in EG (experimental group) vs. CG (group of control) — months 30-36 of the project life
    Rates (number of participants, fractions or percentages) of breasfeeding will be calculated and compared in both groups: CG (control) vs. EG (experimental).
