Does anybody use/recommend using 24 calorie formula for term/near term &amp;/or 
SGA babies that need supplementation?  I've always thought that the 24 
calorie formula was not recommended for otherwise healthy term/near term 
babies.  The reason I ask is that I've seen several of these babies recently 
that are having 24 cal formula ordered for supplementation.  

I guess I wonder first, is there any reason to give the 24 calorie formula, and 
second, is there a possible detriment to giving this?

These are babies with no other health concerns.

Thanks,
