Abstract
All babies, including the ones admitted to NICU, should receive their mother’s milk for their reduced morbidity and mortality in short-term and optimal growth and cognitive development in the long run. NICU babies are at the highest risk of lactational failure and formula feeding due to a variety of reasons. Various barriers for exclusive breastfeeding, the quality indicators of optimal lactational supply, and interventions to improve own mother’s milk supply for NICU babies is discussed in this article.
