Hi, Denny: I have an excellent thouhgt-provoking article from Pediatrics Basics, a free for the asking magazine put out quarterly by Gerber that discusses the very question you bring up. We've all said that rapid growth is good, but is it really? Another article in the same issue talks about what pregnant women "feed" their babies really matters. Anyway, the issue is Number 104 1 Fall 2003. You can probably reach them at 1-800-595-0324 or [log in to unmask] or at www.gerber.com.
