Preterm babies are at higher risk of insufficient nutrition intake and though of insufficient growth and weight gain. To maintain optimal

growth even after the discharge they might require specific nutrition. Current ESPGHAN recommendation for preterm breast fed babies

is represented by usage of breast milk combined with breast milk fortifiers if necessary. There are special postdischarge formulas (PDF),

which will help the preterm baby to grow optimally. Those formulas contain higher amount of proteins. Nutrition comitee of ESPGHAN

recommends feeding by postdischarge formula until the baby is 52 week post conception.

Keywords: preterm infants, low birth weight, breast milk fortifiers, postdischarge formulas
