Kangaroo Mother Care is built around closeness—but maintaining that closeness can become challenging when a mother is experiencing pain or fatigue after breast cancer treatment.
When holding the baby becomes uncomfortable, KMC sessions may become shorter or harder to sustain.
ThermaSling is designed to support the baby's positioning against the mother's chest, helping reduce the physical effort of continuously holding the baby.
Because sometimes, supporting the mother is also part of supporting KMC.
Use of KMC and positioning aids should be guided by the treating healthcare team, especially following surgery or during cancer treatment.
