A total of 128 (73 multiparous, 55 primiparous) women participated in the study. The mean BSES-SF score
was 51.18 (Standard deviation, SD: 12.48). The median BSES-SF score was 53. Of women using a second-line
strategy, 16 exceeded the median, and 42 were below. Analyses using Kruskal-Wallis tests confirmed this difference
was statistically significant (H = 21.569, p = 0.001). The rate of second-line strategy use was 48%. The four most
commonly used second-line strategies were: bottles with regular teats (77%); syringe feeding (44%); bottles with
wide teats (34%); and nipple shields (27%).
