The collected data was analysed and interpreted by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Result- This study revealed that the mean of Breast engorgement pre- test in experimental group among postnatal mother 4. 16 . The mean percentage is 69. 3% and the SD is 1. 43. The mean of Breast engorgement pre- test in control group among postnatal mothers is 4. 12 ,The mean percentage is 68% and SD is 0. 745, The mean of breast pain pre- test in experimental group among postnatal mother 4. 79 ,The mean percentage is 49. 7% and the SD is 2. 026 . The mean of breast pain pre- test in control group among postnatal mother 4. 28, the mean percentage is 42. 8% and SD is 1. 59474, The mean of pre- test in experimental group among postnatal mother 1. 08 , the mean percentage is 30%and the SD is 0. 8164. The mean of pre- test in control group among postnatal mother 3. 24, the mean percentage is 54% and SD is the mean of post - test in experimental group among postnatal mother is 1. 08, The mean percentage is 10. 8 % and the SD is 1. 2219 .The mean of post- test in control group among postnatal mother 4. 64, the mean percentage is 46. 4 % and SD is 1. 97230.
