Das späte Frühgeborene: eine Herausforderung in der Stillberatung

Späte Frühgeborene adaptieren sich meistens recht gut nach der Geburt und haben überwiegend ein ausreichend hohes Geburtsgewicht, um auf der regulären Wochenstation betreut werden zu können. Das täuscht allerdings darüber hinweg, dass sie noch eine nennenswerte organische und neurologische Unreife aufweisen und über unzureichende Energiereserven verfügen. Eine Folge ist ineffektives Stillen mit dem Risiko für mehr oder weniger schwerwiegende Komplikationen. Was ist bei der Stillberatung besonders zu beachten, um bei diesen Kindern effektives Stillen zu ermöglichen?
