Skin-to-skin care isn't just for babies, it supports mom too.

A new 2026 systematic review and meta-analysis found that kangaroo mother care (prolonged skin-to-skin contact, often paired with breastfeeding) was associated with a significant reduction in postpartum depressive symptoms.

While skin-to-skin isn't a replacement for mental health care when it's needed, it's a simple, low-cost, evidence-based practice that may benefit both parent and baby.

The greatest effects were seen among parents of preterm infants, but the overall findings reinforce what we've long known: nurturing the parent-infant connection matters.

Skin-to-skin contact isn't only for releasing the placenta or the first couple days. This contact is beneficial long term.

Let’s put to rest for good the false assumptions that bottle-feeding is “easier” for preemies than breastfeeding. Acording to this 2026 RCT, at their first feeding by mouth, preemies breastfed had measurably better oxygen levels and heart rates compared with those whose first oral feed was by bottle. The breastfed preemies even took more milk! Please share these findings far and wide! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41318959/

Stunning powerful and Always AMAZING!!!

  It was my son’s birthday yesterday. My baby turned 25. One quarter of a century. As often happens these days, it made me rather sentimental. But then I started thinking about the bond between mother and child. It is in this space where the poetic and the scientific meet, and that meeting space ...

New research highlights an important takeaway: education alone may not be enough to improve breastfeeding outcomes.

A study on postpartum care centers found that while some practices improved with training, exclusive breastfeeding rates didn’t significantly change, pointing to the need for broader support systems.
