Hello,

I'm a lactation consultant in a large level three NICU and my manager asked me 
to inquire about what other NICU's were using for breastmilk when thickening is 
required when OPMS shows infant can not safely swallow thin fluids? I understand 
using rice cereal to thicken breastmilk is problematic due to enzymes in 
breastmilk breaking down the rice cereal, although I believe we used it years 
ago. Anyone out there have any suggestions? These are premature infants still in 
the NICU.

Thanks,
