Abstract

According to the 2021 health scientific journal, breast milk dams occur due to several factors, including incorrect breastfeeding techniques, inverted nipples, babies unable to suck on the nipple and areola, mothers who do not breastfeed their babies as often as possible or babies who do not suck actively. Among the several causal factors above, if not treated immediately it will result in mastitis. Correct latching is one of the keys to the success of a baby breastfeeding at the mother's breast. If the breasts are sore, it could be a sign that the baby is not latching well when breastfeeding. Generally, the mother will correct the latching position by releasing the baby's mouth while breastfeeding and attaching it again. The importance of breast care for post partum mothers is one way to increase breast milk production because breast milk is an important intake for the growth and development and health of babies.

            According to WHO data in 2018, the percentage of breastfeeding women who experienced breast milk dams reached an average of 87.06% or reached 8242. Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey data in 2015 stated that there were 35,985 or (15.60%) postpartum mothers who experienced breast milk dams and in 2016 as many as 77,231 or (37.12%) postpartum mothers experienced breast milk dams (Oroza, 2019)
