Neonatal Nutrition Guide - | Health

The goal of nutrition is to achieve as near to normal weight and length growth as possible. The aim should be to introduce enteral milk feeds as early as possible. The target weight gain when a baby is on full enteral feeds is between 15 and 20 g/kg/day with an average of around 15g/kg/day (150-200g/week when > 37 weeks). ................
