<< Can someone share any information on obese, exclusively breastfed
babies.  I am working with a mom who's 6 month old girl is 28 lbs. >>

My exclusively breastfed daughter weighed 26 pounds at six months old, 36
pounds at a year.  By the time she was 20 months old, she weighed 48 pounds.
I didn't restrict her access to the breast and I didn't monitor how much solid
food she ate, though I'm careful about the kinds of food we offer her
regularly.  (yes, she gets some treats, but not every day)  She's had a lot of
encouragement to be active, too.

Now, at almost 32 months, she weighs just a pound or two more than she did a
year ago.  She is 41 inches tall (dh and I are tall people) and -- though
still not a skinny kid -- definitely seems to be growing into her weight.  She
still nurses a couple of times a day, BTW.

Anyhow, that's my personal experience.  It mirrors the experience of others
I've known with big babies, though most of them seem to have slowed down in
their weight gain before mine did.  Somewhere around a year seems more
average, IME.
