Neonates referred for the routine physical examination, jaundiced cases not requiring hospitalization, and newborns with hyperthermia and weight loss were included in the study. Neonates with less than 34 weeks of gestation, jaundiced cases requiring hospitalization, newborns with congenital anomalies, or those with confirmed infectious diseases were excluded from the study. Proper breastfeeding position was considered due to the status of attachment of the neonate to the mother\u2019s breast.
