Feeding a Premature or Late-Preterm Baby?

Premature babies often face feeding challenges that full-term babies do not. They may be sleepier, tire easily during feeds, have difficulty transferring milk, or need supplementation while feeding skills mature.

Whether your baby spent time in the NICU or was born just a few weeks early, I can help.
