Popis: | To explore the relationship between direct-breastfeeding in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and breastfeeding duration after discharge.Initiating and maintaining breastmilk feeding is an important goal that begins in the NICU. Little is known about direct-breastfeeding in the NICU and its relation to breastfeeding duration.Chart review of 46 infants (32weeks gestational age or1500 grams) whose mothers provided breastmilk.One month after discharge, mothers still providing breastmilk were more likely to have provided ≥1 direct-breastfeed per day in the NICU (21.16, CI: 3.13-143.25, p0.01) and had prior breastfeeding experience (OR: 9.16, CI: 1.02-82.34, p0.05). At 4months, mothers still providing breastmilk were more likely to have provided ≥1 direct-breastfeed per day in the NICU (OR: 12.80, CI: 1.39-118.32, p0.05).Direct-breastfeeding in the NICU may play an essential role in preparing mothers for breastfeeding after discharge, thus potentially impacting breastfeeding duration. |
