These infants,compared to swaddled infants, had higher mean sucking
competency during first breastfeeding (8.7 =B1 2.1 vs 6.3 =B1 2.6; P < .02) and
achieved effective
breastfeeding sooner (935 =B1 721 minutes vs 1737 =B1 1001; P < .04).
Dear Friends:
I've read another study recently, that also compared free to move versus
swaddled infants and found a similar conclusion.
Swaddling routinely is not helpful for breastfeeding.
