Garrett, age 2 months, is an enthusiastic eater who nurses vigorously and gains weight quickly. Garrett's mom, Christine, is concerned that Garrett might be at risk of being permanently overweight. You can advise Christine that
◦ most chubby babies will continue to gain weight during toddlerhood and the preschool years.
◦ there is no evidence that rapid weight gain in infancy is related to later obesity.
◦ she should start supplementing Garrett's diet with cereal.
◦ breastfeeding for the first six months is associated with a leaner body build through early childhood.
