First seen Apr 21, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looks at whether giving preterm infants breast milk at the same time of day it was expressed (like giving night milk at night) helps them sleep better and develop a healthy day-night rhythm. About 200 preterm babies will be split into two groups: one gets milk matched to the time it was expressed, the other gets milk without timing rules. The goal is to see if this simple change improves sleep and development with no added risk.
