Kangaroo mother care:
Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC): This is very beneficial for low birth weight babies ( weight less than 2.5 kg)

Position:
KMC involves placing the babies in a "frog" position and tied to their mother's chest with skin to skin contact.
Benefits:
Can provide warmth & feeding
Reduces the risk of hypothermia, infection and stress and results in increased breast-feeding and better parent-infant bonding.
Baby will start gaining weight within weeks
