Summary

The approach described here is based both on theoretical concepts and on the work of several teams of researchers. By positioning the baby and the appropriate adult, a speech bath, a sustained look and an expressive face, it is hypothesized that this early communication exercise will significantly improve the transition from passive feeding, active feeding of the premature child, from a qualitative and quantitative point of view.

Conditions

  • Immature Newborn
  • Feeding Behavior

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Implementation of ALIJEU

The intervention concerns the passage from the passive feed (gastric tube) to the active feed (breast, feeding bottle). We propose to set up a pleasant moment just before his meal. This is a practical exercise of a few minutes. The aim of this special moment is to facilitate child-adult exchanges, improve active food intake and reduce the length of hospital stay.
