The Effect of the Message Left by Mothers Whose Babies Are in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

The research data will be collected with mothers whose babies are in the NICU. Information about the research will be given to mothers who come to leave milk for their babies and the research will be conducted with those who agree to participate. All surveys will be pre-tested on the mothers without randomization and the group they are in will be determined by randomization. The mothers in the experimental group will be asked to write messages to their babies on the milk bags they bring in the mornings for 3 days. They will be asked to write on the paper attached to the milk bag what they want to tell their baby that the investigators will read the message to them and to return it every morning. The post-test of all surveys will be conducted at the end of the 3rd day.
