I  recently had a mom in the NICU ask me why is it that every time she 
pumps she  wants to cry?   (her baby is 29 weeks, now 3 weeks old)  She  did not 
indicate there is anything specific that makes her want to cry.   Any 
thoughts
Hello all,
 
I agree with the psychological and physiological suggestions of a grief  
reaction of missing out on the skin to skin and the shock of this baby's  
arrival, as well as the D-MER connection. Would mom be able to get a  
KangaCarrier to help with the skin-to-skin for both her and the baby's  stabilization? 
Hopefully understanding that D-MER is real and physiological is  helpful 
too.
 
Peace,
Judy
