i do appreciate the healthy slow gainers and the testimonials of the parents here. i have a very petite daughter (so am I) who is about 51 lbs (23 kg) at very close to 11 yrs of age. However... she was a very good gainer in her infancy though, slowing down after about 1 yr or so. I wonder about these petite kids - were they gaining more in early infancy?
