Feeling your pain. Our second one was also diagnosed failure to thrive after dropping from the 50% at 2 weeks to below the charts at 2 months. (He gained 2 ounces between the two dates.) Honestly the nurse made me feel like a bad mother implying that I wasn't feeding him enough... They finally found some heart defects and he had open heart surgery in March to fix them. He has since gained 2 pounds and is now in the 20% for weight. But, yeah, he was 8 months when he started wearing 6-9 month clothes. Sometimes kiddos just have a rough start...
