Dear Jan,
I do not work in a scn but have done in the
past.
The amount the staff are feeding the baby
calculates at being about right. I just wonder how many sucks (whether
breast or bottle) the baby is being offered. The baby is equivalent to 34
weeks now and should be managing several
that is fantastic sally. Keep up the great work you are doing. all
you have said sounds so familiar.
In full support of KMC for all babies as able and appropriate

The doctor is Dr Nils Bergman. He spoke at ABA's International Conference
in Brisbane last September. Fascinating stuff, and a truly inspirational
man.

I need to chat to some one who works in a scn with
well fattening up premmies feel free to e-mail me direct. My client was born at
31 weeks and weighed 1780 he is 4 weeks old and weighs 2.5 kg he is always
asleep and stuffed with 50mls EBM 3hrly it is very difficult despite skin to
skin etc
Dear Jan
I havesome infowhich may help to fill in the big picture so that you and your
client can work through this problem.
Most SCN will give parents the info not to expect
to be able to take their babe home until his feeding reflexes are fully
developed, and that this may take up until
Jan, Alesa and others
As I have mentioned to Jan offlist, I am not a nurse, but have experience of bfeeding a prem baby. My baby was born at 34 weeks and went home at nearly 36 weeks being fully b/fed. This was done with the support of the staff at the unit, my being at the unit for over 12 hours
A little
while back I saw a fantastic video from a South African doctor about Kangaroo
Mother Care. Now I know that this is not a new concept but really lets think
about this.
If the babe
is skin to skin 24 hours a day.. not most of the time.. then the baby is having
her temperature

Dear Rhonda and all:
I don't think the gestational age for the development of sucking has changed
other than we are more aware of the age range at which it may occur. Some
perfectly normal preemies will not suck well until 35-36 weeks to term, yet
others will suck well from 32-33 weeks. I
Thanks for the name, Dr Nils Bergman. It was really curious for me to
find the resistance from the SCN staff as it was the hospital midwives
who had been at the ABA conference and brought the video back that
inspired me to really pursue Kangaroo Mother Care with this little babe.
