Kangaroo Care

Cameron is still learning to regulate his own body temperature- a skill we take for granted. It's one of the important things that his isolete helps him with. But, another thing that works is something called Kangaroo Care. They strip Cameron down to his diaper, and he goes on mommy or daddy's chest- skin to skin. We cover up with a blanket, and our body temperature helps regulate his temperature. He can stay like that for up to an hour or more. "K-Care," as they call it, is our favorite time of the day. Cameron loves it, too. It's a great chance to bond and cuddle. This is Cameron enjoying some K-Care with daddy.
