Question

A 35-week-old premature baby weighing 5 pounds feels extremely tired during feeding. How can this problem be solved?

Answer

Premature babies are not fully developed in terms of growth and development at birth, and their constitution is relatively weak. Therefore, they may require more effort during feeding. During feeding, you can allow the baby to rest for a while and then continue. If the baby seems unsatisfied, they will seek food again. Observe the baby’s feeding pattern carefully to better understand their needs. Caring for premature babies requires more attention and patience. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish you health!
