Effects of Meditation on Mood and Breastfeeding Outcomes In Mothers Pumping Breastmilk at Work

Abstract
60 women who pump breastmilk at work were randomly assigned to two weeks of meditation while pumping or a control condition. It was hypothesized that meditation would improve rates of breastmilk volume, breastfeeding self-efficacy, and stress, but mixed factorial ANOVA results do not support the hypothesis.
