Breast Feeding| Premature Child Care

Breast milk is best for your child, breastfeeding, especially for premature child care often the only thing you can actively do. The problem arises only when the mother and child does not receive the full support that is needed here.

Although the number of baby-friendly hospitals is increasing and also the nurses informed accordingly or even to further training in lactation, they still sometimes take on the opinion that breastfeeding would be exhausting for the premature baby, thus, they give them milk from the bottle. It is, however, that the milk is flowing as soon as the milk-ejection reflex begins and this is even easier for the child makes to suck.

The real problem is rather the fact that the nurses may not have the necessary skills or simply do not have time! It can also cause problems or be stressful when the child is not done properly. Therefore it is important to let it show if necessary. Most of the problems which e.g. also include inflammation of the nipples are the result of applying incorrect. Therefore: If you decided to breastfeed your child, first congratulations! This is the best that can happen. Do they not clear, however, for some reason, there is contact with the creating or lack of support, do not hesitate to their midwife or a lactation consultant! "Breast milk is best for your child" - but is this also applies for premature babies? Especially for premature babies, it is especially valuable if they can get milk!

With joy you can observe that there are more and more so-called "baby-friendly hospitals". Some mothers have (unjustified) doubt that breast milk should be enough even with a preterm infant, the pregnancy and thus the milk production still not "ready" was. However, this is a fallacy! It is proved that the more immature the baby is born, the more accurate the composition of breast milk adapted to the nutrients that the child would receive through the placenta. Breast milk has a higher content of antibodies, nitrogen, sodium, chloride, iron, fatty acids and protein. Similarly, scientific studies show that babies are feed on breast milk feeding tube, the tube feeding is better tolerated. For very small premature infants, it can still happen that the milk must be enriched. Here are feed mostly calcium, phosphate, iron, sodium, trace elements, vitamins, proteins, fats and MTC-energy in the form of carbohydrates. More help: more calories can be reached by the cream up expressed breast milk in the fridge! The higher fat milk is made up from skim so that they can off the target. Another possibility would be pump the breast before and absorb the following caloric milk. The milk-fat would come out if the breast is warmed and massaged.
