Hi DrJen, I did in fact already plot the Ht/Wt as that is so much of what we do at WIC. The baby is waaaaay off the charts for weight vs height. I then plotted on the WHO charts and still really off. Which is why I started second guessing myself.

Hey there, Before you get angry, you might want to verify what the physician said. = And perhaps plot the baby on the WHO curves. And then if this was indeed wha= t the physician said, use this as an opportunity to educate the physician about the curves and on oversupply, which this mom/baby pair probably hav= e going on. This might also be a good time remind mom that we are all just "the hired= help" and that maternal intuition is a powerful thing that should not be ignored. The advice of the others whom she has hired to help her, if not= in line with her thoughts about her feeding experience, could easily be igno= red.
