Nesting during shots for newborns after cesarean birth
Part of Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether placing newborns in a cozy 'nest' during their first shot after a cesarean birth reduces pain and stress and improves breastfeeding. It may help your baby feel more comfortable and support a good start to breastfeeding.

This study tests whether acupressure (gentle pressure on specific points) or massage can help women recover after a planned cesarean. It aims to reduce pain and improve comfort without using extra medicine.
This study looks at how sleep loss in the first two days after childbirth affects new mothers' desire to breastfeed and how well breastfeeding goes. If you've just had a baby and have begun breastfeeding within 48 hours, this research may help understand your experience.
This study tests if gently wrapping (swaddling) or positioning (nesting) your baby helps reduce pain and stress while they are on breathing support. It's for newborns who are breathing fast but otherwise healthy.
This study tests two pain-relief methods during a heel stick blood draw in full-term newborns. The goal is to find which method helps babies feel less pain and stay more comfortable.
This trial tests a tool called ShotBlocker that may make the Hepatitis B vaccine less painful for newborn babies. Babies will be randomly assigned to get the shot with or without the device, so researchers can see if it helps.
