Rooming-In x 16 MonthsRooming-In
Prior to 2009 there were very few mothers requesting rooming-in
Infants were routinely separated from mothers following birth and throughout the hospital stay
Supplementation at night was not unusual
Rates of exclusive breastfeeding were low

“Having my son with me was a wonderful experience. I felt closer to him every minute and was glad I had him with me.”~ Leanne
Rooming In: Because the best place for
baby is with mom.
Rooming-in means that yourbaby stays with you in yourroom throughout your hospital stay. Why is rooming-in best?* Babies sleep better and cry less* Baby gains weight better* You get to know your baby sooner* You are better prepared to take care of your baby when you go home What about sleep?Research shows mothers often sleep better when Rooming-In than when the baby is out of the room. What about special circumstances?The nursery is available if you should needassistance in special circumstances.
Baby will be with you throughout the day & night, except for short visits to the nursery for medical procedures. The nursery nurse will be on the maternity unit teaching and assisting you with the care of your baby as needed.

sleeps on schedule and burps on demand, an angel all the time,"
you're the grandma."-- Theresa Bloomingdale
