Benefits of breastfeeding
less infections, less NEC, less
obesity, improved bonding and
improved neurodevelopment.

Enhancing Lactation After Preterm Birth
The initiative of supporting early, regular expression
is the most important component of an NICU
breastfeeding policy
Early skin-to-skin
care with non-
nutritive sucking
should be strongly
encouraged
.
Medications and Additives:
Osmolality
• AAP recommended limit is 400mOsm/Kg
• Adding 3 or 4 of the following to human milk may
markedly increase osmolality to near or over
1000mOsm/Kg.
– Multivitamins
– Spironolactone and Chlorthiazide
– Dexamethasone
– Caffeine Citrate

Weeks of lactation
• Macronutrient composition of preterm milk for week 1
(colostrum) and weeks 2–8 of lactation (mature milk)
• Fortified preterm milk feeds are unlikely to have an
adequate PER, potentially compromising adequate
growth
• Human milk should be supplemented (fortified) with
the nutrients in short supply, particularly with protein,
calcium, and phosphate to meet high requirements of
this group of tiny preterm infants
Boyce, C et al.2016
Donor milk being not exactly like
mother’s milk emerges
• Different cytokine profile, different HMO profile
• Different macronutrient composition (mostly
lower protein)
• Lower concentration of LC-PUFAs
• Use may result in growth compromise compared to M
M, although not universally
• “Lacto-engineering” can help –
fortification to help growth
Human Milk Fortification
• Multicomponent fortification of human milk
is associated with short-term improvements
in weight gain, linear, and head growth in
preterm infants
• Multi-nutrient fortifiers can be added to
breast milk to increase nutrient content by
about 10%.
• Protective due to
presence of immune
modulators or due to lac
bovine casein?
• No comparison of bovi
based HMF vs. H2MF
