Great study of two.  My son (now 37 and great body!) and his daughter.  The latter was one of the fattest babies I have ever seen.  Exclusively breastfed for 6 months and then  given appropriate complementary foods.  Now a normal weight 4-year old.  
There may well have been some oversupply involved in both of these cases, but with plenty of normal toddler activity and appropriate foods the weight "issue" was resolved.  Dana,  it seems as if this also happened with your mother's other child?
