Hello fellow Lactnetters!

I will be presenting a very short staff education topic in two days on
Kangaroo Care/ Skin-to-Skin Care. We would mostly use it for our otherwise
health babies who are unable to keep their temperatures up. We'd like to
use it more, but we need to convince the nurses that it works.

Does anyone know the efficacy (as in the rise in temperature in degrees) of
this practice? I know the nurses will be asking, and I just want to be able
to give them something concrete to think about.

If you know the efficacy of the temperature, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.
