I agree it is a terrible term, and very frightening for a parent, when I was told it was when DD started losing weight and was already nearly 1kg below the 1st %ile it was very upsetting, I was already worried anough let alone the sound of that term and what comes with it!

I can see why something like this can also lead to PND.

I also don't like the word syndrome as FTT or WGR is not a syndrome...

Weight Gain Resistant is good
