My baby is born today. After his birth, during breastfeeding the baby made mild grunting sounds and the doc then said that this should not happen, additionally she also said that immediately after birth baby made same sound and hence they kept him in observation for an hour and it had stopped. Since it was observed again, they have admitted him in NICU and are saying baby is doing well all is normal, he is crying, opened his eyes, they are feeding him formula milk through nose and pipe. My concern is shouldn't the baby be fed mothers milk instead, does all of this feel right? Since I am a first time mom, i am a lil confused and concerned bcz they also said that they will pump out my milk n feed the baby from tomorrow. If that's correct then why keep him in nicu. It would be really helpful if someone could please help me explain and clear out my concerns. Thanks!
