Background: Breastfeeding is essential for optimal infant health, offering numerous benefits such as infection prevention and enhanced bonding. Despite its importance, challenges exist, particularly mothers of preterm very low birth weight (VLBW) infants, necessitating effective lactation support strategies. Initiatives like the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI) Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) aim to promote breastfeeding success, while donor human milk (DHM) serves an alternative bridge mother supported build up her supply. Adequate support, counseling, education are vital antenatally, during NICU stays after discharge improve rates health outcomes, ultimately contributing global efforts reduce neonatal mortality achieve sustainable development goals. This study explores existing research on factors influencing mothers’ ability produce breast sustain breastfeeding, with enhancing improving outcomes.Methods/Design: A systematic review will be conducted according Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-analyses (PRISMA) checklist.
