January 14, 2020 updated by: University Hospital, Brest
The investigators compared a pooled mother's expressed breastmilk for 24 hours with individual pump session collection of milk to provide a more consistent caloric product without increasing bacterial contamination.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
caloric value of breastmilk
Time Frame: at the end of each 24 hours collection from inclusion to the end of collection during 4 days
The caloric value will be compared between the two groups (pooled expressed breastmilk versus individual expressed breastmilk)
at the end of each 24 hours collection from inclusion to the end of collection during 4 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
bacterial contamination of breastmilk
Time Frame: at the end of each 24 hours collection from inclusion to the end of collection during 4 days
The bacterial contamination of breastmilk will be compared between the two groups with the value for colony-forming units per milliliter (cfu/mL) after plating on sheep blood agar and Chapman's agar.
at the end of each 24 hours collection from inclusion to the end of collection during 4 days
