    This arm involves neonates with presumed simple gastroschisis who will be subjected to an early feeding protocol. The protocol specifies initiating human milk feeds within 48 hours of surgical repair of gastroschisis. Feeds are advanced based on tolerance and clinical assessment, with a focus on promoting oral motor skill development.
