Hello All,
Said I would post for a local mom: baby born at 28 wks, weighing~1lb, now 5
months old, ~8lbs. Baby nurses between 6and 10 am then refuses to nurse well
and mom gives EBM in a bottle. Mother is afraid baby will wean to the bottle
and would like to nurse for at least 12 months. She is interested in hearing
about other moms of premature babies, and how long they were able to keep
nursing going. This mother is working with LCs with lots of experience - I am
basically a support source. Any anecdotes I can share with her would be
appreciated. Thanks, Judy Fram, Brooklyn, NY
