What I saw 20 years ago, doing visits after 24 hour discharges, was weight regain or gaining by day 4-5. I wish we had some real great research on what is normal! Taking all things in to consideration that we know. IVs, over hydration, real weight at 24-30 hours, access to mom/breast and so on. I think 2 weeks is a disaster waiting to happen. I'm personally sure that it eventually affects duration. Is there a researcher out there who needs a topic? Pat in SNJ, immersed at moment in old research 80s - 90s
