Preterm infants face many feeding challenges during hospitalization which can prolong hospitalization, raise parental anxiety and can lead to medical instability. The Feeding Progression study will randomize preterm infants to one of two currently accepted oral feeding schedules; oral feed attempts every 3 hours or every 6 hours. The study will collect data on oral feeding success, milk transfer, sucking strength, growth and medical complications.
