Alternative feeding includes donor human milk (DONOR), with or without fortification and preterm formula. This study evaluated the association between early feeding with exclusively and predominantly MOM (MAINLY-MOM) versus MOM supplemented with fortified DONOR (MOM + DONOR) or preterm formula (MOM + FORMULA) and in-hospital growth and neonatal morbidities. Method: This was a multicentre (n = 13 units) cohort study of infants born at
