You are correct. I accidentally used a troy oz. conversion scale. I
used a great website for it, however. It is www.metric-conversions.org. Just
when I did the search specifically for grams to oz., I ended up with the gram to
Troy oz. window. Thanks for the correction. I agree. I would not panic
about a 6.6 pound gain. I wasn't concerned about 8 pounds either. I would much
rather worry about the babies that don't gain.

I get a different amount when I calculate the conversion:
1 gram = .002205 pounds
3,000 grams = 6.6 pounds
