Abstract
The cobedding of premature twins consists in lying them together in a single cocoon to maintain the closeness developed in the womb. It is associated with beneficial effects on the quality of sleep and could favour weight gain. Moreover, it does not seem to increase the incidence of infections or the frequency of the accidental removal of medical devices.
