A. Kids usually do not have any nipple con confusion it is believed that they are confused but they are not they know what is the feed that they are taking so if you want you can kindly consult our lactation specialist with a premature child sometimes it takes a little extra time for them to get into the rhythm so they will guide you and advise you accordingly
