i have mentioned this arching baby business before, and we have had some
lengthy responses and very useful discussion of it. however, i will remind all
who are interested that i have the information concerning arching babies from
the BAB on a file that is easy to send to anyone who wants to read it. yes,
the poor weight gain is usually from the baby's difficulty nursing. it can
range from moderate to severe. the severe cases usually get weaned right away;
they just cannot nurse. i intend to encourage mothers to get cranio-sacral
therapy for this problem when it comes around again, and i am very interested
to see if it helps.
