[quote=Anonymous]I know it has been awhile since I have asked feedback. Thank you all for your feedbacks and recommendations. My wife had come back with analysis for our son. It seems he does not know how to "eat".   The therapies around here focused on getting him to eat new food so we can transition him off the formula. But in Denver we learned that even if we give him chocolate cake, he still won't eat because he does not know how. We had seem him try to eat once before by biting down on a food stick, but he gagged as he had no idea what to do and has fear of doing that again.

I think the explanation made more sense so we have switched therapiest that will now guide his oral motor skills. We do visit Denver and planning to visit more, but it's costing us a lot of money. My wife thinks its worth it, but at the same time the amount they charge is about 2.5 times what others charge and does not take insurance. So if anyone else is interested, you have to save a lot of money.  I think we are making some progress, wish it was affordable. [/quote]
