If a baby needs Special Care
If a newborn needs medical support or is born before 37 weeks they go to NICU - Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Babies stay in incubators to keep them warm and may have tubes and wires attached to their face or body . This can be a confronting thing for parents who are not expecting It. But parents can still have lots of contact and care for their babies. 👶🏼
Parents will be supported to have skin to skin and give kangaroo care to help baby get better quicker, promote bonding and learn to breastfeed. 🤱 🦘
There is lots of support for parents available at the hospital or you can hire a doula for more individualised support 🤍
