The huge advantages of breastfeeding they are more important even in babies with any pathology or condition that makes it difficult such as prematurity, defects in the palate or mouth or problems that have left neurological sequelae.
However, the difficulties that, in these cases, the establishment of breastfeeding may have, can be solved with adequate support, as this very interesting video document that explains an experience at the Kennedy Hospital in Bogotá explains.
The premature babies or with oral problems, or even those that have suffered neurological damage, are the ones that most need all the benefits that breastfeeding will offer them: attachment and emotional bond with the mother, complete nutrition and protection against diseases and pathologies.
In those cases, if possible, giving adequate support to mothers so that they can breastfeed is especially important despite the difficulties in feeding with breast milk.
Breastfeeding will also stimulate your swallowing and language skills, so, precisely in those cases, as this video explains, they are especially noteworthy, but often they will need mothers and professionals to understand their particular guidelines well.
I especially loved, as a mother that I have been a premature baby, as the breastfeeding of these children explains, that I had to solve and investigate myself, without the help of the toilets that attended to me: their feeding guidelines, the importance of the method Kangaroo and the need for breast milk supplementation until he failed to have the strength to feed himself (which he later did until he was seven years old).
For pregnant women, mothers of premature babies or with problems on their palate or neurological damage, I recommend this video, because it offers some very interesting explanations for breastfeeding despite the most serious problems.
