In the data collection process of the research, the "personal information form" consisting of 24 questions and developed by the researchers as a result of the literature review, the "Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale" and the "Visual Comparison Scale (VAS)" will be used.

The gum chewing process will be repeated every two hours. Mothers will be mobilized at the 8th sat after the birthday. Pain levels of mothers in both groups will be evaluated every two hours after delivery.
In addition, the amount of analgesic use will be compared and comments will be made on the level of pain.
The sleep quality of the postpartum women will be questioned the day after the cesarean section.
Gastrointestinal system functions will be followed in the postoperative period and will be evaluated by asking questions about gas output and defecation time in the personal information form.
