Question
A mother experienced an early delivery at 33 weeks of pregnancy and her preemie baby is currently in an incubator, soon to be discharged. As the baby is smaller in size, she wants to know how to properly care for such a preemie.
Answer
Preemies have weaker resistance compared to full-term newborns, so parents need to be particularly careful in caring for them. It is recommended that parents maintain appropriate diet and clothing for the baby, avoiding letting the baby get too cold or too hot. In daily life, closely observe the baby’s feeding status, defecation condition, and body temperature. As long as the baby’s diet and defecation are normal and the body temperature is stable, there should not be any major issues. Wishing the baby a healthy and happy growth.
