Abstract
Breast feeding is unique to provide health and growth to newborn babies, as well as positive feedbacks to mothers. Medical personnel is a critical factor to initiate a successful learning curve. Hospital stay after delivery relatively is short, normal delivery stays for 3 days, C-section stays for 6 days. Medical facilities usually offer learning information on brochures or other paper-form reading materials. Due to the physical burden experienced by mother, they tend to spend the most part of attention to their own body recovery, and pay little or no attention to study. It turns most efforts into waste and non environmental-friendly. Verbal instruction by personnel also has its handicap on issues such as inconsistency and lack of time sufficiency. How to provide the most effective way to fulfill the needs for new mothers and sufficient essential health education is always a great challenge to Medical personnel. Cell phone and network is gaining popularity in daily life nowadays, and a proven auxiliary tool for bringing attention and promoting effective learning.

There are 56 in experimental group; 56 in control group. Result: Recognition rate raised from 72.3% to 96.2%. Satisfactory rate on learning raised from 50.0% to 95.2%. Conclusion: Learning by network is a learning process driven by the need of each individual, emphasized by highly self motivation. Breath feeding is a complicated and physical dependent learning curve, therefore using integration of literature, animation, motion pictures, and visual aide will overcome the traditional difficulties faced by medical personnel. Promoting breast feeding is heavyload and time-consuming task. For the purpose of longterm propaganda and under limited human resources conditions, the clinic adaption of this learning protocol will bring win-win situation
