What are the Feeding Options for Neonates with Disorders?
Feeding options may vary depending on the specific disorder:
Breastfeeding: Preferred if possible, as breast milk contains antibodies and nutrients that aid in immunity and development. Formula Feeding: Specialized formulas are available for neonates with specific needs, such as lactose intolerance or protein allergies. Parenteral Nutrition: Used when the digestive system cannot handle enteral feeds, delivering nutrients directly into the bloodstream.
