Kangaroo mother care (KMC) is a preventative, economical method for infants with low birth weight (LBW). KMC benefits LBW infants in a number of ways. This review standpoints the effect of KMC on the weight gain of LBW neonates. KMC also improves breastfeeding rates during the hospital stay as well as at home. KMC can be provided not only by mothers but also by fathers and other adults in the family. However, it is not routinely practiced in hospitals. Short-term and long-term KMC is beneficial for survival, neurodevelopment, breastfeeding, and mother-infant bonding. Preterm infants are more likely to experience neonatal mortality and morbidity due to acute breathing problems, gastrointestinal problems, autoimmune disorders, and neurological defects as compared to full-term and normal-weight infants. A thorough literature search was conducted using key databases like PubMed and Google Scholar, as well as Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) terms and related keywords. Clinical health experts also believed that implementing KMC would assist mothers in developing more solid emotional bonds with their newborns. As a result, both mothers and their newborns felt more secure, and the babies were more relaxed. KMC was also seen to support the infants' growth and development, which improved the mothers' sense of connection. It is crucial to remember that KMC works better for babies with very low birth weight (VLBW). The mother-child relationship enhances sucking-feeding, and KMC infants have higher means of growth parameters.
