Dear Lactnet Friends: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S002175571830161X?via%3Dihub "The organization of sucking in the brainstem <https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/brainstem> allows for the full-term healthy infant to adapt their sucking in response to the specific properties present in each of the pacifiers/bottles utilized. Results may be different in infants with a history of feeding difficulties, neurological impairments, and/or medical complications that may impair their sensory feedback <https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/sensory-feedback> to these brainstem mechanisms and therefore their ability to modulate their sucking and feeding." warmly, -- Nikki Lee RN, BSN, Mother of 2, MS, IBCLC, CCE, CIMI, ANLC, CKC, RYT Reviews Editor,* Clinical Lactation* www.nikkileehealth.com Pronouns: she/her/hers *Communications are confidential and meant only for whom they are addressed.* *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
