When my baby was born at just 29 weeks, weighing only 2.29 pounds, I felt helpless. Then I discovered Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC). Holding my baby skin-to-skin on my chest not only helped regulate his breathing, heart rate, and temperature but also strengthened his immunity and supported breastfeeding. More importantly, it created a bond that gave me hope and a sense of purpose during a challenging time. KMC became a simple yet powerful way for me to actively support my baby’s growth and recovery.
