Milk bank vs formula: which helps babies breastfeed longer?

NCT ID NCT06315127

Summary

This study is testing whether giving pasteurized donor milk from a milk bank, instead of formula, helps more babies continue breastfeeding after they leave the hospital. It involves 112 newborns who need extra nutrition because they were born small, late, or to a mother with diabetes. Researchers will randomly give babies either donor milk or formula during their hospital stay and then check in for four months to see how feeding, growth, and health progress.
