Esther, there are few listed in the appendix of my book. i don't have the
book handy, but if you have it, it's in appendix B. Three of of the
NICU-type videos are especially old. Then there's one on kangaroo care that
integrates breastfeeding, and maybe a couple of others. If you look on the
left side of the page, I've categorieds all of the media by topic or key
word, so look for "preterm."

(Mind you, you could argue with my choice of "key words" sometimes, but it
does the job for me!)

There is alway a film from Norway called Breast is Best. As I recall it has
a preemie kid in it, but there are many kids of all ages in the video. But
I do recall the preemie baby section. Again, in my appendix, it tells you
where to get this stuff, but I think one of the places that has this one if
Infact Canada, among others.
