My question to those who work in Level III nurseries:
1. Does your NICU use test weights? On rare occassions we might do pre and
post wt.
2. If not, what indices are used to determine the amount of supplement to
premies learning how to take breast milk meals? First few feedings we
give all the feeding then start cutting back the amount and watch output.
3. If your unit has breastfeeding policies, please share them.
Please email privately >> We do not have specific policies for NICU.
