I struggle with this nearly every day....babies born from 34-37 weeks that are "nursing" and going home with mom. Because I'm not here every day, sometimes they begin supplementing with formula because it never occured to anyone to start pumping to have colostrum/breast milk as a supplement? Does anyone have a plan or handout to share with moms? Staff kind of gets it when developmentally appropriate care is explained in terms of breastfeeding (i.e. decreased energy = decreased breast stim = decreased intake = you know the rest.)
I have attended several excellent presentations on this topic by well respected LCs (Barbara Wilson-Clay, Mary Rose Tully, and one or two others) but I can't find a handout for mom.
Thanks,
