The data were collected using an Information Form, Observation Form, and Transcutaneous Bilirubin Level Meter. Bilirubin levels were measured 1\u2009hr after the first breastfeeding in both groups. The abdominal massage was performed for 5\u2009min in each session, was continued in three sessions per day; was completed in totally six sessions for 2 days in infants in the experimental group. The second bilirubin measurements were repeated at the 48th hour after the birth and bilirubin levels were compared in two groups. The Student <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic> test was used to evaluate the normally distributed data and the Mann\u2013Whitney \n<jats:italic>U<\/jats:italic> test was used to carry out statistics in nonnormal distribution of quantitative data.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The bilirubin levels of the groups (experimental group: 1.06\u2009\u00b1\u20090.92; control group: 1.01\u2009\u00b1\u20090.98) were statistically similar before abdominal massage, <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>(88)\u2009=\u20090.25, \n<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.803.
