[Dysphagia] Infant question



I agree with Bob. Also, did you put a glove on, and initiate
non-nutritive suck on your little finger turned upside down (no nails
please) Suck may LOOK vigorous but looks can be deceiving...had a NICU
baby do the same thing years ago and when I did this, he was not
sucking. Ended up to be a variation of Mobieus syndrome. karen dedinsky, SLP

ps. not sure how to send this to the "group"
