Hello all,
I did decide to see the feeding therapist which was the OT at a local hospital.She seemed to think that he will probably have some sort of allergies b/c he seems to have to stop eating to breath. She says this is something she always looks for in LOs b/c she has bad allergies and has trouble breathing when she eats to the point she doesn’t want to eat.I definately have noticed his breathing, this was the very first thing that took us to ER when he was about 8 weeks old b/f anything else had even surfaced. His respirations were 80/min which is freakishly high for anyone.As for the texture thing, she gave me some pointers and basically reassured me that it will pass. I think, and she agreed that I was trying to force too much on him at once b/c I just went with a whole meal of really textured things instead of trying a few bites here and there.Last nights meal went a lot smoother, lots of gagging, but no puking and when he became upset, I switched to a stage 2 food that he liked and we were both much happier.Hope it continues to improve and I will have to work on my patience skills!
Thanks to all !Good news!! I hope things continue to improve.
