I just plotted DD's weight on a WHO chart. She has gone from 50th at 1 month, to 25th at 2, and now at 3 she's just barely on the chart, maybe the 1st %.... Lots of mucous in her stool. She has a few slight midline issues: slight tongue tie, deep crease in her tailbone extending from her butt crack, also a ridge going down the center of the top of her head

Gluten/dairy/soy/fish/nuts/chocolate/caffeine have been out for 3+ weeks. I just gave up corn/eggs/nightshades. Also all sugar and most fruit/mushrooms/vinegar etc because I suspect I have an overgrowth of candida.

I'm going to rent a Medela scale to do test weights to double check my supply, but diaper counts are fine. We just saw a GI who said since DD doesn't have blood in her stool and is on the chart there is nothing she gain do. I have to fax her the growth chart though so maybe when she sees the slow decline... I just made an appt. with an allergist that my doctor highly recommended. We are both taking probiotics.

Should I do a TED to see if we hit baseline?

I think if you've just taken out a whole bunch of stuff, give it a chance, maybe a week, before going right to a TED. Keep that food journal though.

I haven't heard about the ridge in the skull, but that's got to be some kind of clue, I'd think.
