Leanne, Are these babies in the NICU? If so, are the moms with them? holding them? Kangaroo care is the best for premies and it can be done. And for moms milk production. Often with all the medical concerns around premies, the very basic and essential needs get ignored such as skin to skin contact, the importance of the mother and baby's togetherness. Do these moms need support to be able to stay with their babies? Are the moms hugely stressed? What supports them ?
Mothers of premies
can play an essential role in the babies care in the NICU, holding the baby skin to skin, changing the diapers, taking the temperature.

Subject: Fenugeek and premies
I have permission to post. My old boss who now is doing LC at Miami Children's Hospital has a problem with several Moms of premies and called me for some input. I also suggested we post to the "Net".
These mommies have low milk supplies. She has them
pumping on schedule, ?watching their fluid intake she inquired about the use of Fenugeek and she had Sheila Humphries herbal reference and I had 2008 Hale. Hale states one case of GI bleeding noted in premies. Knowing how my neos react that would make the herb a "nono"
