Patient's question:
My daughter is a premature baby and is now five months old. She is ready to be fed with formula milk. What kind of formula should premature babies eat after reaching the standard?Doctor's answer:
Although it is too early, once the treatment meets the standard, the diet can be the same as that of normal children. Premature infants should switch to regular milk powder once they meet the standard. They should first drink premature infant formula, and then switch to regular milk powder when the baby's condition returns to normal. When replacing premature infant formula with regular milk powder, the ratio of old formula to new formula should be 3:7, then 5:5, and finally 7:3, without any adverse reactions, until the premature infant formula is completely replaced by regular milk powder.
