The Effect of Antenatal Education on Expectant Fathers' Attitudes toward Breastfeeding and Attachment to the Fetus.

Although the difference was statistically insignificant, antenatal education appears to have an impact on paternal breastfeeding attitudes and antenatal attachment to the fetus. Additionally, several paternal characteristics were associated with greater antenatal attachment. Future research should be directed toward the investigation of additional factors that impact antenatal-paternal attachment and breastfeeding attitudes so that effective education programs can be designed.
