Write a reply in one thread but lost it. All three of mine were scn bubs. Dd1 was a 34 weeker and had a tiny mouth. She was tube fed until the day before she came home and had done the 24 hour suck feeds. This was a combination if breast and bottle feeds as I couldn't be there all the time. At home she bf and had ebm as top ups as age struggled with her weight.

Dd2 was bf and topped up with formula or ebm until we got home, she was a 37 weeker. At home she refused all bottles and bf for 9 months.

Ds was 39+4 but he had a low grade fever and jaundice so he was in the scn for 5 days. He was fully bf the first three days but had bottles when I couldn't be there when I had to leave him there. He started off fully bf at home but struggled with his weight he lost 20% then only gained 50g a week. At 4 months he was still under his birth weight. We introduced formula top ups and finally worked out he was intolerant to lactose including my breastmilk.

So each baby had a different journey. It's going to be difficult to do all suck feeds if you can't be there, see if you can talk to a pediatrician or the lc not just the midwives.
