Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of midwifery care for breastfeeding mothers using papaya therapy to increase breast milk production. The study used an observational case study with a qualitative approach. The results showed that on the third day after 7 days of regular consumption of papaya, breast milk volume increased significantly, from 100 ml on D-1 to 610 ml on D-7. The mother's rest pattern before the intervention was 6 hours, and after the intervention, it increased to 8 hours. In conclusion, papaya therapy is effective in significantly increasing breast milk production in breastfeeding mothers. This intervention can be a simple and easy-to-implement alternative to support exclusive breastfeeding.   Keywords: Breast Milk, Papaya, Breastfeeding Mothers
