SYMP8 - Reckitt/Mead Johnson Nutrition: Human Milk: The Known and Unknown

As clinicians, we understand that Mother’s Own Milk (MOM) is the best feeding choice for infants, but do we understand the many factors that influence the nutrient composition of human milk? Are there clinical implications of using donor milk as an equal alternative to a mother’s own milk?

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1. Understand how maternal factors impact human milk composition.
2. Compare and contrast the difference between a mother's own milk and human donor milk.
3. Create a strategic plan to maximize the use of mother's own milk.
