Group 1 will receive standard hospital care. Group 2 will receive 1 session of antenatal counseling and Group 3 will receive 2 sessions of postanatal lactation counseling. All will receive postnatal follow up phone calls using questions from Case Report Forms at 2 weeks, 8 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
