Dear friends,
I've been skipping a couple of days worth of Lacnet mails, so perhaps my idea was brought in by some else already, but still want to chime in here.

Depending on the place and severeness of the burns baby may not be able to drink at breast. Mom will have to pump. If mom can create and maintain an oversupply, she might consider (in dialoque with staff) to feed hindmilk. This will provide her child with extra high energy food, combined with much needed vitamins for healing and not adding extra burden in coping with intestinal problems due to alien nutrients from fortifier.
If baby is feeding at breast she might want to consider pumping foremilk out before baby starts nursing.

Warmly,

Gonneke, IBCLC, LLLL in southern Netherlands, where summer skipped spring, after autumn stayed so long winter wasn't invited in
