This study is looking at whether switching preterm infants from donor human milk to preterm infant formula after their first month of life is safe and helps them grow better. Currently, there isn't clear guidance on how long preterm infants should receive donor human milk. Researchers believe that making this change might lead to improved weight, length, and fat-free mass (muscle and bone) accumulation. You might be able to join if your baby is at least 28 days old, weighs more than 1,250 grams, and is currently receiving donor human milk with or without their mother's own milk. The study aims to enroll 20 infants and is measuring weight velocity (how fast weight is gained) and fat-free mass at 36 weeks post menstrual age (a way to measure a baby's age from conception). The current recruitment status is unclear.
