what is prelactal feeding

1 answer

Prelactal feeding is a practice in which a newborn baby is given a small amount of expressed breast milk or formula before breastfeeding. It is typically done to help stimulate the baby's sucking reflex and encourage them to breastfeed more effectively. Prelactal feeding may also be recommended for premature babies or those who are having trouble latching onto the breast.
