acupressure group
A suitable environment will be prepared for mothers in terms of warmth and light, where privacy can be protected. The application points will be determined with the acu-point device by choosing the most comfortable position of the mother, leaving the application points exposed. The most preferred points ST36, LI4 and SP6 were selected from the points reported to affect lactation by reviewing the literature on the points to be compressed. Acupressure will be applied to points (bidirectional, right and left) for 2 minutes for a total of 6 minutes. Light pressure will be applied with the thumb of the practitioner's hand. Immediately after applying pressure for 2 minutes for each point, it will be moved to the other point in the symmetrical region and the application will be made without interruption. While practicing, the researcher will control the time using a digital wrist watch with a stopwatch
Control Group
No application will be made. The mothers in this group will fill in the Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue twice, once between 8-12 hours post-op and once on the post-op 2nd day.
