“…To meet the principles of developmental neonatal care with minimising unnecessary exposure to external stimuli and clustering care activities, the optimal policy would be a feeding on demand. However, a recent meta‐analysis did not find sufficient evidence to support that policy (20).…”

“…They concluded that overall findings support cautious contention that demand feeding might prove to be the feeding approach of choice for most healthy preterm infants. In contrast, Tosh and McGuire [2006] concluded following a standard search strategy of the Cochrane Neonatal Review Group that there are insufficient data to guide clinical practice as of the date of their review. They urged a large randomized controlled trial to focus on infants in the transition phase from gavage to oral feeding that should be of sufficient duration to assess effects on growth and time to oral feeding and hospital discharge.…”

The development of feeding and swallowing involves a highly complex set of interactions that begin in embryologic and fetal periods and continue through infancy and early childhood. This article will focus on swallowing and feeding development in infants who are developing normally with a review of some aspects of prenatal development that provide a basis for in utero sucking and swallowing. Non-nutritive sucking in healthy preterm infants, nipple feeding in preterm and term infants, and selected processes of continued development of oral skills for feeding throughout the first year of life will be discussed. Advances in research have provided new information in our understanding of the neurophysiology related to swallowing, premature infants' sucking and swallowing patterns, and changes in patterns from preterm to near term to term infants. Oral skill development as texture changes are made throughout the second half of the first year of life is an under studied phenomenon. Knowledge of normal developmental progression is essential for professionals to appreciate differences from normal in infants and children with feeding and swallowing disorders. Additional research of infants and children who demonstrate overall typical development in oral skills for feeding is encouraged and will provide helpful reference points in increasing understanding of children who exhibit differences from typical development. It is hoped that new technology will provide noninvasive means of delineating all phases of sucking and swallowing from prenatal through infancy. Further related topics in other articles of this issue provide a comprehensive review of factors influencing oral intake, growth, nutrition, and neurodevelopmental status of children.
