    Method: A quantitative, non-experimental, descriptive correlational cross-sectional design. The study involved 68 preterm newborns. The following instruments were used: the Feeding and Nutritional Status Record Form for Preterm Newborns (FRTAENRNPT), the Intrauterine Growth Curve for Male Sex, and the Intrauterine Growth Curve for Female Sex. Results: 47% of the neonates were fed with fortified human milk, 37% were exclusively breastfed, and 16% were fed with premature infant formula. Regarding nutritional status, 54% were small for their gestational age (SGA), 46% were appropriate for their gestational age (AGA), and none of the infants were large for their gestational age (LGA). A statistically significant relationship was found between the type of feeding and the nutritional status of preterm infants. The non-parametric chi-square test was used, yielding a coefficient of 0.016 (p<0.05). Conclusions: A relationship exists between the type of feeding and nutritional development. Depending on the type of milk and feeding method, nutritional development will be either adequate or inadequate.
