Insufficient breast milk production often occurs during the first week postpartum due to psychological stress, inadequate stimulation of prolactin and oxytocin hormones, and nutritional aspects of the mother’s diet. Efforts to improve and increase breast milk production include providing back massage to induce a relaxing sensation and fulfilling the needs for a balanced nutritious diet, which can effectively stimulate the release of prolactin and oxytocin hormones. This research aims to compare the effectiveness of oxytocin massage and banana flower consumption in increasing breast milk volume. This study used true experimental with a pre-post test design (excluding a control group) and involved 32 postpartum mothers with low-stress levels and low to medium socioeconomic status. Breast milk volume was evaluated by breast pumping for 30 minutes and measuring the output with a measuring cup. Data were analyzed using an independent t-test. There was a 6.375 cc increase in breast milk volume in the banana flower consumption group compared to the oxytocin massage group. However, statistically, both treatments had similar effects, as there were no significant differences between the groups (p = 0.519). Therefore, both oxytocin massage and banana flower consumption can be considered effective alternatives for increasing breast milk volume.

Weight gain serves as one of the indicators of the effectiveness of breastfeeding. Stimulation methods, such as consuming banana blossom and receiving oxytocin massage, have the potential to enhance breast milk production. This research aims to compare the effectiveness of these two interventions, banana blossom consumption and oxytocin massage, in breastfeeding mothers regarding infant weight increase at Dinoyo Health Center in Malang. Previous studies have demonstrated that both interventions can enhance breast milk production and infant weight; thus, this study focuses on determining which intervention is more effective. The study employed a true experimental design without a control group, utilizing a pre- and post-intervention approach during the postpartum period from days four to ten. This timeframe was selected because hormone levels, such as progesterone and estrogen, decrease, allowing for a more rapid increase in prolactin production. This approach aims to ensure that infants receive exclusive breastfeeding while promptly addressing any issues related to breast milk production. A total of 32 participants were selected through purposive sampling, with weight measurements taken at the beginning and end of the intervention. The results of the paired t-test indicated that infants of mothers who consumed banana blossom experienced an average weight gain of 246.75 g (p = 0.000). In contrast, infants whose mothers received oxytocin massage showed a weight gain of 217.81 g (p = 0.000). Further analysis with an independent t-test revealed that the consumption of banana blossom was more effective in increasing infant weight, with a mean difference in weight gain of 28.94 g (p = 0.045). This analysis confirmed a significant difference in weight gain between the two groups: mothers who consumed banana blossom had a greater increase in their infants’ weight. Future research is encouraged to explore the effectiveness of various banana blossom preparations and analyze their nutritional content to identify the most effective preparation for improving infant weight.
