The postpartum period is a vulnerable phase often accompanied by lactation problems, particularly ineffective breastfeeding and discomfort due to breast engorgement. These conditions may reduce maternal comfort, inhibit the let-down reflex, and increase the risk of failure in exclusive breastfeeding. Therefore, safe, practical, and comprehensive non-pharmacological nursing interventions are needed. This Final Nursing Project aims to describe the implementation of cabbage leaf compresses combined with breastfeeding education to improve maternal comfort and enhance breast milk flow in postpartum mothers. This study employed a case study method using a nursing care approach involving two postpartum mothers who experienced ineffective breastfeeding and discomfort due to breast engorgement. The interventions were provided for three days and included cabbage leaf compresses and education on breastfeeding techniques. Evaluation focused on breastfeeding ability, pain level, breast condition, maternal comfort, and milk production. The results showed improvement in breastfeeding ability, indicated by the mothers’ ability to correctly demonstrate proper positioning and latch-on techniques. Infants appeared calmer during feeding, and the duration of breastfeeding increased to approximately 10 minutes per breast. Pain scores decreased from 5 to 0–3, breast tension was reduced, and maternal comfort improved. It can be concluded that the application of cabbage leaf compresses combined with breastfeeding education is effective in improving breast milk flow and maternal comfort in postpartum mothers and can be recommended as an independent nursing intervention in maternity practice.

Dairy cattle farming is a cattle breeding business specifically developed to produce large quantities of milk. Dairy cattle generally belong to the Bos taurus species, and one of the most common and productive dairy cattle breeds in Indonesia is the Holstein Friesian (FH). This study aims to evaluate how artificial insemination (AI) impacts the quantity and quality of milk produced by dairy cattle in the region, thereby contributing to improved agricultural practices and economic outcomes for dairy farmers in Indonesia. This study used a quantitative approach with a descriptive and experimental design to evaluate the effectiveness of artificial insemination (AI) on milk production in dairy cattle in Indonesia, focusing on factors influencing AI success. The results of this study indicate that artificial insemination (AI) has been proven effective in improving genetic quality and milk production in dairy cattle in Indonesia. Timely implementation of AI, especially at the peak of the estrus cycle, can increase conception rates by between 30% and 70%, with an ideal target of 65-75%. An AI program supported by inseminator training, maintained frozen semen quality, and good feed and livestock health management has a positive impact on the ideal calving interval of approximately 12 months, thereby increasing calf numbers and milk production. Artificial insemination is an effective reproductive method for increasing dairy cattle productivity through genetic improvement and controlled reproductive management. The success of an AI program depends heavily on semen quality, proper insemination techniques, livestock health management, and farmer involvement.

Breast Milk (ASI) is the primary source of nutrition for infants and provides long-term health benefits. However, some mothers experience insufficient breast milk production. Moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera) are known as a natural galactagogue that can enhance breast milk production. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of moringa leaves in increasing breast milk production through a systematic literature review and meta-analysis. Literature searches were conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library databases using relevant keywords. The meta-analysis results showed that moringa leaf supplementation significantly increased breast milk volume and prolactin levels compared to the control. However, further research is needed to evaluate its mechanism of action and long-term safety.

It is hoped that breastfeeding can help achieve SDGs goal 3, target 2, namely efforts to reduce the neonatal mortality rate to at least 12 per 1000 live births in all countries by 2030 and stop unnecessary deaths of newborns and toddlers. Encouraging healthy breastfeeding is so important that it can prevent more than 820,000 deaths of children under five every year. Oxytocin massage has been shown to increase the sensation of relaxation, improve sleep quality and comfort, reduce pain and tension, and help increase prolactin and oxytocin levels, which in turn increases breast milk production.The research design uses the Pre Experimental Design method, namely in the form of a One Group pretest and posttest design without a control group. This research used purposive sampling, with a total sample of 22 respondents. Univariate and bivariate data analysis. The results of this study showed that the value before the oxytocin massage was a mean of 16.14 and after the oxytocin massage the mean was 27.73. The conclusion of this research shows that the results of the experimental test have a significant value with a p value = 0.000 <0.05. This proves that there is a significant difference in breast milk production between before and after oxytocin massage. It is recommended that midwives at the Afisya clinic use this research as input in efforts to increase breast milk production in post partum mothers.

Breast milk (ASI) is the primary and best food for infants because it contains almost all the nutrients in the right composition to meet the needs of the baby for optimal growth and development. Breastfeeding mothers require additional nutrients such as carbohydrates, protein, and iron. One of the food ingredients that contains carbohydrates, protein, and iron is sorghum and katuk leaves. Sorghum is rich in carbohydrates and protein, while katuk leaves contain lactagogue, which helps increase breast milk production. This study aims to analyze the effect of sorghum flour substitution and the addition of katuk leaves in wet noodles on the level of preference, organoleptic quality, and nutritional content of wet noodles as an alternative food for breastfeeding mothers. This study used a true experimental method with a 3x2 factorial design, involving three levels of sorghum flour substitution (10%, 20%, 30%) and two levels of katuk leaf flour addition (2%, 4%). A preference test was conducted with 35 panelists, while an organoleptic quality test was conducted with 25 panelists using a hedonic scale, analyzed with Friedman, Wilcoxon, and Two-Way Anova tests. The results showed that sorghum flour and katuk leaf flour substitutions significantly affected preference levels in terms of color, aroma, texture, and taste, with formula X1Y1 being the most preferred. Sorghum flour and katuk leaf flour substitution affected the organoleptic quality parameters of color and texture but did not influence aroma and taste. The best nutritional content of noodles from the preference test in formula X1Y1 (10% sorghum, 2% katuk leaves) per 100 grams was 6.08% protein, 42.51% carbohydrates, and 3.11% iron.

Some residents, sometimes use herbal plants to treat perceived health complaints, but their utilization is not optimal because so far the use of traditional medicinal plants is only based on the opinions of friends or neighbors and hereditary traditions. The use of traditional medicine that is not in accordance with the rules, is feared to reduce the efficacy of the drug itself. If the use is too much, it is feared that it will also have a toxic effect that will be dangerous for the community. For this reason, it is necessary to educate the public, so that the utilization of family herbal plants can be optimal, and the health status of the community increases. Sweet potato leaves can also increase milk production because in the sweet potato leaves there are galactagogue substances that can increase breast milk production so that they can meet the nutritional needs of babies through breast milk. The socialization activity was carried out on Wednesday, February 16, 2022 at 09.00 WITA, located in Tanakaraeng Village, Manuju District, Kab. Gowa. This activity aims to provide information to the public about various plants that have efficacy as herbal plants, how to use herbal plants, especially for obstetric services, which includes how to use, process and dose/dose herbs. This educational process uses a lecture method with the help of powerpoints and leaflets.

Breast milk is the best food for babies, because breast milk contains nutrients and all the nutrients with the amount and composition needed by the baby. one of the obstacles in the process of lactation on the first day is the mother does not produce enough breast milk or the baby does not want to suck so that the mother does not want to breastfeed the baby. Way that can be done to increase milk production is by doing the technique  marmet. This case study aims to illustrate the increased production breast milk in post partum mothers after nursing with marine techniques in hospitals Bougenville Room TK III 04.06.02 Bhakti Wira Tamtama Semarang.
