The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and potential benefits of a mHealth intervention to increase BM pumping frequency and BM production in mothers delivering critically ill infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit

Conditions

  • Breast Pumping

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Text message including biomarker of breast pumping adequacy

The intervention group will be sent one message that includes general information pertinent to all mothers expressing BM for their infants and one personalized real-time biomarker based message which will include the sodium level contained in the BM since the previous message, the number of times pumped on those days and will either congratulate the participant on how well the participant is pumping BM for the infant or how many more times per day the participant needs to pump to decrease the BM sodium level and increase BM production
