Dear all: Let me clarify that at the time I posted there was not enough info from the original post about weight gain to really have any interpretation of the meaning of that gain. So, I was merely throwing out various plausible scenarios any one of which needed more than weight gain as an indicator in order to determine if that was what was going on. I probably could have come up with about fifteen more plausible scenarios as could any one of us if we were merely given a set of weights and no other information. My point was that one can only speculate without further information. The information that was added in later posts was the more crucial information for evaluating the most plausible explanation of that baby's pattern of gain.
