Contexto
What changed: Women received universal, proactive peer support antenatally and up to eight weeks postnatally, including frequent contact in the first two weeks. Comparison: Usual care comprising universal NHS midwife and health visitor support plus reactive local feeding services. Limits: The study sample had high educational attainment and strong baseline motivation to breastfeed; recruitment achieved 80% rather than 90% power.
