Martha, In these kind of cases I thank my lucky stars that the ped is
willing to keep the IV going until nursing resumes and isn't insisting that
the baby be force fed with a rubber nipple.

Skin to skin is great! And the baby will come around. I tell moms to give
nothing else to suck on...absolutely nothing. If there is a reason to
supplement with pumped milk...use a cup feeder. Sooner or later the need to
suck outweighs all other variables and baby will nurse.
