文摘

Preterm infants frequently experience feeding difficulties, thus contributing to delayed growth and hospital discharge. Occurrence of morbidities and being born with a low birth weight negatively affects the development of feeding skills. Early start of KMC and parental involvement in infants’ feeding positively affect the development of feeding skills. The findings from this study should encourage health care professionals to promote mother-father-infant relationships.
