Every year, more than 20 million infants are born weighing less than 2.5 kg – over 96% of them in developing countries. These low-birth-weight (LBW) infants are at increased risk of early growth retardation, infectious disease, developmental delay and death during infancy and childhood. Very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants - those infants born weighing less than 1.5 kg - are particularly vulnerable to the these adverse outcomes.

Most LBW and VLBW is a consequence of preterm birth, small size for gestational age, or both.

Interventions to improve the feeding of LBW and VLBW infants are likely to improve the immediate and longer-term health and well-being of the individual infant and have a significant impact on neonatal and infant mortality levels in the population.

Many of the considerations in feeding LBW infants also apply to VLBW infants, including breastfeeding when possible, however VLBW infants also have unique nutritional needs as described in the recommendations below.
