I'm not sure , but it think it's recommended to breastfeed premature infants , not to give them the powder variety....that being said I remember my cousin had a premature infant that had tubes running down his throat feeding him while he was in an incubator...but he might have been breastfed while not in it.I hope I was a help , but like I said I'm not quite sure. :)

Why do babies born at full term have a better chance for survival than babies born a few month early?

Babies that are born on or relatively near their due date are "most of the time" healthier that premature babies. Premature babies are born before there due date by weeks or even months. If they are born early, they wouldn't have grown to their full capability while still in their mom's stomach. Generally, if a woman is having early contractions and is heading into labor, the doctors will give her a medication to stop the pain/contractions. All in all, babies that are born premature aren't as fully grown as babies who are born on time.

Does surfactant means to keep alveoli open and helps premature babies survive?

Quite often, surfactant is not fully present in premature babies which is why they tend to need extra breathing support when they are born.If doctors are able to hold off on the imminent birth of a premature baby, they will give the mother injections of steroids to try & speed up lung development.Surfactant reduces the surface tension of the lungs and allows them to expand, which is important for breathing.
