Just got back from ILCA and am working on a new case sent to me by email.
Can any of you who work in the NICU give me some guidance here? I have been
unable to get detailed info yet, but the basic question is, what is the
standard of care for post operative feedings for a breastfed baby? Baby had
part of bowel removed. Plan is to start with Pedilyte, then pedilyte plus
breastmilk and then exclusive breastmilk. Is this pretty standard
treatment? I know for adults you get nothing, then clear fluids, then soft
foods and back to a normal diet as tolerated. I know that most institutions
do not consider breastmilk to be a clear fluid. Mom would like to go
directly to breastmilk from IV. Any guidance would be appreciated.
BTW, both the LLLI and ILCA conferences were wonderful. Had a great time
and enjoyed talking with many of the folks from Lactnet. Hope that you all
had a nice and safe trip home.
Warmly,
Sharon Knorr, BS, IBCLC
