| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Vsisual Analog scale (VAS) | Experimental | It will be used to measure pain in the intervention and control groups during the postpartum period. Receives: Behavioral: Music |
| State anxiety scale | Experimental | It will be used to evaluate the mother's current anxiety status in the postpartum period. Receives: Behavioral: Music |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Postpartum Pain
The Visual Analog Scale will be used to assess the level of cesarean pain in the postpartum period in the intervention and control groups. A minimum score of 1 and a maximum score of 10 are obtained from the scale. As the score obtained from the scale increases, it indicates that the pain also increases. After the pre-test and intervention, a change in pain and a change in the Visual Analog Scale score are expected in the intervention group.
Measured: Within the first hour after birth
State Anxiety
The state anxiety scale evaluates the degree of severity of the emotions or behaviors experienced by the individual in the situation he/she is in. The highest score that can be obtained is 80, and the lowest score is 20. As the score obtained from the scale increases, it shows that the state anxiety also increases.
Measured: Within the first hour after birth
Breastfeeding Success
The scale evaluates the success of mothers in breastfeeding their babies. The minimum score that can be obtained from the scale is 0 and the maximum score is 10, and a high score from the evaluation and diagnosis scale means that breastfeeding success is high.
Measured: Within the first hour after birth
