Why early pumping matters for a premature baby

Abstracts

For a premature baby, pumping milk can be a meaningful feeding step before nursing directly is possible.

In “Breastfeeding A Preemie - A Personal Story,” I write as a mother of two preemies about how stressful that period can be. The article explains why pumping early matters: breast milk is tailored to a premature baby’s needs and supports growth.

For lactation support, that means recognizing expressed milk as part of feeding the baby now—not only as preparation for breastfeeding later. https://www.breastfeedingwithlove.com/lactation-consultant-blog/2011/03/01/breastfeeding-a-preemie
