Breastfeeding gives babies the best nutritional start - but for preterm and low birth weight infants, staying warm is equally important to support that journey.
When babies become cold, their bodies use extra energy to maintain body temperature. WHO recommends Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC), combining skin-to-skin contact with breastfeeding support, as part of evidence-based care for these vulnerable newborns.
How ThermaSling Supports Kangaroo Mother Care
1. Easier, repeated breastfeeding — Allows flexible movement of the baby toward the breast without completely removing the sling.
2. Helps maintain warmth — Thermoregulating material helps keep the baby’s posterior side warm during skin-to-skin contact.
3. Continuous maternal contact — Keeps the baby securely close to the mother, even while she moves.
4. Supports breastfeeding positioning — Once attached and latched, the baby remains supported while the mother’s hands stay free to guide the baby’s head and breast for easier feeding.
Designed to support uninterrupted Kangaroo Mother Care, ThermaSling brings together warmth, secure positioning, maternal contact, and breastfeeding convenience—helping make prolonged skin-to-skin care easier to continue.
