The intervention group received Breastfeeding odor stimulation, and a control group getting standard hospital procedures. Intervention is given in accordance with standard operating procedures that have been made and the results were taken by observation. Result: Research find  that breastfeeding odor stimulation having  affect to transition period from oro gastric tube to total oral feeding (t = -3.946, p = 0.001). Conclusion: Breastfeeding odor stimulation is expected to improve the oral feeding ability, thus reducing neonatal morbidity and mortality and improve breastfeeding outcomes on premature baby.
