Preterm baby

2023-06-06 12:28:40
Hi , my son was born on 32 weeks and was 2.100 kg and was in NICU for 13 days. now he is home and weighs 2.110 kg after 14 days. My doc asked me to feed him every two hour with the spoon but he does not wake up at all during the feeding. I have tried every method of waking him up. He has difficult in swallowing. I am giving him breast milk as well as formula feed.  Moreover he sleeps through out the day and night and hardly open his eyes. What should I do.
