Mary Kay Smith asked for information on Breastfeeding the
near term infant. There was as excellent article in Pediatric
Annals May 2003,   " Breastfeeding the Borderline (Near-
Term) Preterm Infant" by  Nancy Wight MD
Darillyn Starr asked if anyone has used  a fingerfeeder as an
SNS> I rarely use an SNS but have found that the Hazelbaker
finger feeder works just fine as an SNS.The women can tuck
the ff into her bra to hold them in position. They are easy
to clean. The starter SNS is only  to be used for 24 hours ,I
believe. It is almost impossible to clean. I have seen moms
going home with the starter SNS thinking that it is fine to
continue to use the starter for days before I was called to
see them.
