Dear Lactnet Friends:
Jacqueline Levine's post about hypoglycemia reminds me of another benefit
of immediate, continuous, uninterrupted s2s until the first breastfeed(s).
Influence of Immediate Skin-to-Skin Contact During Cesarean Surgery on Rate
of Transfer of Newborns to NICU for Observation
Schneider, Lindsay W. et al.
Nursing for Women's Health 2017 , Volume 21 , Issue 1 , 28 - 33
Before implementation of immediate skin-to-skin contact during cesarean
surgery,
60 (5.6%) of 1,070 infants were transferred to the NICU for observation;
After implementation,
31 (1.75%) of 1,771 infants were transferred to the NICU for observation
.
Much of the stress that makes newborns shaky and miserable comes from
routine practices. The baby is wired to expect to be with its mother after
birth; when this doesn't happen, the newborn's physiology, in transition,
is negatively impacted.
warmly,
--
