Nicola's Story

Writer: Breastfeeding JournalBreastfeeding Journal

My breastfeeding journey in NICU (neonatal intensive care unit) involved a combination of hand expression and using a breast pump to provide milk for my baby. Since direct breastfeeding wasn’t possible initially due to his age (being born at 27 weeks), the expressed milk was first fed to him through a tube in his mouth and later through his nose. To ensure he received the necessary nutrients, a fortifier was added to my milk at first. This experience was challenging but deeply rewarding, as it allowed me to contribute to my baby’s growth and health during his time in NICU.
