I have a friend who gave birth to a premie. She's asking about Similac for weight gain. Is it really advisable instead of just giving breast milk?

Yes, mommy. Kapag kasi preemie, mas need ng body nila ang madaming calories. At hindi naproprovide yun ng breastmilk alone. Kaya sinasuggest talaga minsan ng ibang pedia na magtake muna ang mga preemie ng Similac weight gain or other similar formula milk.

Yes, although sobrang daming nutrients ng breastmilk, hindi parin nya kayang i-cater ang calorie needs ng mga preemies kaya advisable ang mga weight gain formulas like Similac :)
