Abstract

Research and clinical practice has taught us that the first twenty-eight days of an infant’s life are critical. During this time, rapid growth should occur both physiologically and mentally. Retardation of growth during this critical time in the infant’s life leads to future undesirable ramifications. The main goal during this period, is to provide sufficient nutrients both parentally and enterally.
