Regarding MCT oil use in newborn milk
Hello Doctor,
My baby was born preterm at 34 weeks 3 days on 4th December at 9:00 PM. Current age is around 3–4 weeks and current weight is ~2.2 kg (lowest was 2.0 kg).
Our pediatrician has prescribed MCT oil – 10 drops, to be mixed with milk. Baby is being fed mostly expressed breast milk by bowl/spoon, with total intake around 300 ml in 24 hours.
I would like to confirm:
Is MCT oil safe for preterm babies?
Should it be given with every feed or selected feeds only?
For how long is it usually continued?
What side effects should we monitor (loose stools, spit-ups, gas)?
How do we know when to stop it?
Please advise. Thank you.
