Maternal efficacy in breastfeeding is very necessary so that mothers realize that breastfeeding can save costs and is a simple process. Mothers need effective methods to be able to have skills in breastfeeding. Using breastfeeding self-efficacy theory can provide the right solution to overcome breastfeeding problems and provide appropriate consultation.
