If the baby wakes up and wants to eat the KP will be interrupted immediately and the baby will be fed, then the KP will be completed of time ( 10 minutes) to measure the temperature.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

weight
Weight gain after randomization up to infant doesn´t need to stay in kangaroo position at home.
Kangaroo position days at home
Number days that the infant needs to stay in kangaroo position at home

Secondary Outcome Measures

Alert states
The mother will observe and record YES OR NO the baby woke up during the intervention
Types of feeding
The mother will report whether or not the baby fed during the intervention and will identify the type of feeding (exclusive breast milk, formula or mixed)
Perceived maternal parental self-efficacy
The questionnaire contains 20 items with a Likert scale (1. Totally disagree, 2. disagree, 3. agree and 4. totally agree) the minimum value is 20 and the maximum is 80 and the higher scores means a better outcome.
Postnatal depression
. This scale contains 10 points of 0, 1, 2 and 3 are given according to the increase in the severity of the symptom. The points for questions 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 are scored in reverse order (3, 2, 1, 0). All points are added together to give the total score. A score of 10+ means worse outcome and shows the probability of depression

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The objective of this randomized clinical trial will determine the effectiveness of nursing intervention (Kangaroo Baby Massage) on the interaction between mothers and premature, low birth weight infants at home The dyad mother- infant of the control group will receive Kangaroo position KP and the dyad mother- infant mothers of the intervention group will receive the Kangaroo Baby Massage KBM
Detailed Description
Participants and methods: 68 dyads mother-infant will randomize, 34 in intervention KBM group and 34 in control group KP, previous they meet inclusion criteria and accept their participation through informed consent. weight gain and Kangaroo position days at home will be the primaries outcomes. The Alert states, Types of BC feeding, Perceived maternal parental self-efficacy and Postnatal depression. Will be secondary outcomes. Barnard's mother-child interaction theory supports the study

Masking Description
The infant-mother dyads will not be Know that there are two different interventions in each group. This leads to greater adherence to treatment.
