- Abstract
Operative delivery rates are currently rising in many countries, but the effects of this factor on the initiation and duration of breastfeeding are unclear. The purpose of this study was to evaluate breastfeeding success after instrumental vaginal delivery or cesarean section at full dilatation, and to investigate whether timing of discharge after operative delivery affects breastfeeding rates.
