In June 2000, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released new growth charts. The previous infant growth charts, which have been in use since 1977, were made by measuring a small number of formula-fed, middle class, Caucasian children from southwestern Ohio. The new charts are a big improvement, being based on broadly representative national data.
