Dear Marilyn, When this doctor gave the talk and referred to this article in 1983 did he give the reference? How were these premature babies exposed to the propylene glycol? I have used the Clearsite drsg on many moms, some for several weeks, with great success and no complications. Now, none of the infants were premature, so I do not know how much that is a factor. Is Marsha Stewart among us? She has done several studies with hydrogel drsgs and I would love her insight to this claim. I'm not ready to give up on these drsgs.
