Abstract
Breastfeeding confers numerous protective health effects, particularly concerning mothers associated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, breastfeeding rates recorded in the National Health and Mor- bidity Survey (2016 ) remain unsatisfactory and research shows that breastfeeding practices are notably poor in GDM mothers. This study aimed to investigate the factors associated with breastfeeding intensity among mothers with and without a previous history of GDM.
