Sarah,

We've had her on zinc 15mg since January.  Her appetite hasn't picked up
signficantly. Thanks for the suggestions.

Nafia,

Thanks for your suggestions, we are trying all that you have suggested
regarding foods and having them available at all times.  I have been so
concerned with feeding and weight that I had not given a thought to allergies
with the ear infections.  Thanks for reminding me of that possibility, we need
to explore it.  Could be dairy or wheat? Baby does seem to like
yogart.....dairy?

Beverly,

I have observed the child many times nurse and eat some solids.  She nurses
well, takes large portion of nipple.  I've test weighted her at close to 3
ounces before.  She was preferring soft foods for solids, yogart or pureed
foods, but is showing interest in eating table foods now.  When she nurses or
eats well, she has a little pop belly.  She is cute as a button.  Very active,
practically stand on her head while nursing, like many toddlers.  This is a
mystery, a frustrating one. Thanks for your comments.

Wonderful to have all your suggestions, please keep them coming and please
pray for this child to start gaining weight.

Warmly,
Pat
