Summary

This study looks at whether skin-to-skin contact (kangaroo care) combined with a mother's voice and special positioning can improve comfort, growth, and the ability to eat by mouth in preterm infants born at 30-34 weeks. About 68 babies will be split into two groups: one gets daily kangaroo care with mom telling stories, and the other gets standard care. Researchers will measure comfort levels, weight, and how quickly babies transition to full oral feeding.
