Recent research has shown Kangaroo Care to have positive physiological effects on infants including increased body temperature, decreased respiratory distress, improved rhythm of sleep wake cycle, and decreased stress [2]. However, premature infants that require incubation cannot receive Kangaroo Care, even though they are more likely to suffer from decreased body temperature, respiratory distress, offset sleep cycles, and increased stress [3].<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EY2Axw1PZRI\" width=\"560\" height=\"314\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-bottom is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>[1]Mori, Rintaro, et al. \u201cMeta-Analysis of Physiological Effects of Skin-to-Skin Contact for Newborns and Mothers.\u201d Pediatrics International, vol. 52, no. 2, 2010, pp. 161\u2013170., https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/j.1442-200x.2009.02909.x.<br>[2]Cho, Eun-Sook, et al. \u201cThe Effects of Kangaroo Care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit on the Physiological Functions of Preterm Infants, Maternal\u2013Infant Attachment, and Maternal Stress.\u201d Journal of Pediatric Nursing, vol. 31, no. 4, 2016, pp. 430\u2013438., https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/j.pedn.2016.02.007.<br>[3]Johnston, C.
