AMD has a fair chunk of the relevant references, but he makes you work to filter it out:

I would say it seems serious vaccine injuries - including SIDS - happens mostly in susceptible subgroups. One of the largest of these is preterm children.

People think preterm birth is a risk factor for autism. Not so much. Preterm birth + vaccines is the bigger factor.

Would add formula-fed to the equation. I have twins who were born prematurely but was very lucky to have had them in a NICU that strongly encouraged and supported breastfeeding. That being sad, outside the NICU, people had much lower expectations for me to breastfeed because I had twins. I would imagine breastfeeding rates are lower for preterm children (and especially twins, which are frequently born prematurely) because they haven’t yet developed the breathe, suck, swallow mechanism yet. Unless the mother is strongly supported in pumping to build supply while premature babies grow and develop that skill, breastfeeding is unlikely to be successful.
