Go ahead and cuddle newborns receiving therapeutic hypothermia
In 60 CoolCuddles over 93.12 h, respiratory parameters, HR or neurollgical function stable
No evidence of interference with temperature control

Longer skin to skin care time in the delivery room reaps great benefits with breastfeeding !
Just 45 minutes or more can make a big difference!

Donor human milk reduces the risk of NEC in very preterm infants: RR 0.53, 95% CI 0.37 to 0.76; RD −0.03, 95% CI −0.05 to −0.01; 11 trials, 2261 infants
Probably little or no effect on late‐onset invasive infection or mortality before hospital discharge
