出院后，应告知家长监测婴儿的喂养是否满意。建议记录婴儿吃了多少（如果是配方奶）、吃了什么以及喂养次数。喂养不应少于每 4 小时一次、每天 6-8 次。应监测水合状况，保证每天至少能尿湿 6-8 片尿布。
建议婴儿采用仰卧（勿采用侧卧或俯卧）姿态睡眠，以减少婴儿猝死综合症的风险。[87]American Academy of Pediatrics Task Force on Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

应制定免疫接种的详细计划。同时还推荐采用一般新生儿护理的其他常规措施，例如儿童安全座椅、预期指导，必要时协调医疗服务（例如 OT/PT、专业医疗护理）。[84]LaHood A, Bryant CA. Outpatient care of the premature infant. Am Fam Physician. 2007 Oct 15;76(8):1159-64.http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17990838?tool=bestpractice.com
