Hi All, I am rewriting a policy and am needing to find out what other people do if baby doesn't have that initial good b/f. What do they do, and what time frames are in use. I am thinking along the lines of leaving for 3-6 hours, keeping a very close eye out for feeding cues, lots of skin to skin, expressing milk into babies mouth and if all else fails, to express mum and give EBM via orogavage feed. (Obviously baby is sleepy for whatever reason) This policy is for healthy term neonates. Please reply asap, as I am hoping to get this done this weekend! Thank you for your collective wisdom Susan in Australia [log in to unmask]
