Let’s put to rest for good the false assumptions that bottle-feeding is “easier” for preemies than breastfeeding. Acording to this 2026 RCT, at their first feeding by mouth, preemies breastfed had measurably better oxygen levels and heart rates compared with those whose first oral feed was by bottle. The breastfed preemies even took more milk! Please share these findings far and wide! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41318959/

But an IBCLC lactation consultant can. 🤍
Breastfeeding support isn’t one-size-fits-all. Real-time, personalized guidance makes all the difference—for latch, comfort, and confidence.
