What should be noted when feeding premature infants?

Patient's question:

When I was pregnant with my baby, due to an accident, the baby was premature at about eight and a half months. After birth, the baby stayed in the hospital's incubator for a long time. Now it's time to be discharged, and I'd like to ask what should be noted when feeding premature babies?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, children generally meet normal physiological standards after being hospitalized and before discharge. In this case, it is recommended to pay more attention to the child's body temperature and stool condition. Measure the child's temperature regularly and observe whether there are symptoms such as diarrhea. If breastfeeding, the mother should prioritize a light diet and avoid stimulating foods.
