Average Value of Infant Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) Injury and Death from Similac and Enfamil Attorney

Infants who are born early are labeled as preterm. These babies can have many issues as they start to try to “catch up” and grow to their proper size. A baby who is preterm may need to have and be given nutritional supplements to help the baby to grow.

Newborns get their energy, protein, minerals and other nutrients from the food they drink. Their young stomachs and digestive systems are not ready to digest solid food quite yet. For this reason, a newborn will be given a nutritional supplement such as Similac or Enfamil, which are baby formulas.

There Is a Timeline for a Preterm Baby to “Catch Up” Developmentally to Peers

Babies that are born early and who are sent to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit or NICU, are often in a fight for their lives. They are often hooked up to machines and monitored daily and hourly, to ensure that they are feeding, eating, breathing and developing as much as possible in order to one day be released to go home to their families.

When preterm babies do not grow or have slow postnatal growth development, it can severely affect their later neurodevelopmental growth with impairments, childhood learning disabilities, cognitive issues and educational problems later in life. Preterm infants with nutritional deficits can also experience:

• Low or slow skeletal growth
• Feeding issues
• Allergies
• Reduced bone mass
• Reduced overall health
• Long-term metabolic issues
• Poor cardiovascular health
