A follow up to the baby with poor weight gain.
In the hosiptal one day one with frequent feeds he didnt gain so
 the next day the covering doc (Iwas off) but him on measured
 amounts of pumped milk and or 24 cal formula via Avent bottle.
 Cant blame him, our scales arent accurate enough.
With adequate calorie intake the baby is gaining close to 2 onces
 a day.
Labs incuding UA, electrolytes,CBC, thyroid, IGF-1 are normal,
sweat test pending but our new born screen should detect CF.
Trick now will be getting him exclusively BF. I think some pep
talks and a lot of Dr Jack's compression techniques are what
is needed.
