Co‑dodo crib use to improve maternal–newborn sleep and bonding in the maternity ward

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This randomized, controlled study will enroll adult mothers after full‑term (≥37 weeks) vaginal delivery who plan exclusive breastfeeding and are hospitalized in the maternity ward; participants will be assigned 1:1 to a co‑dodo crib or a standard crib during their stay. Sleep for both mother and infant will be measured noninvasively with actigraphy and mothers will complete validated questionnaires including anxiety and bonding measures. Key exclusions include planned cesarean delivery, a history of sleep disorders, exposure to substances that alter sleep, or unstable acute/chronic conditions. The trial compares objective sleep metrics and patient‑reported bonding and sleep quality between groups during the maternity admission.
