Hi my name is christina, My son Gabriel has down syndrome. he is two and we are having a hard time getting him to eat. some say it’s because he is picky some say he wants to do it himself. anyone else have this problem? any advice??
do you guys go through early on ?? that sounds like a really good question for the ocupational therapist.. they have answered so many questions about that kind of stuff for me.. although now savannahs just the opisite if i let her feed herself she shuvs handfulls of food in her mouth
although one big thing for her and eating was she would choke really easy because her muscles were too weak.. so just to make sure hes not struggling i would bring it up to the doc and see if they wanna do some kind of test or the early on therapist could come over and watch him eat and tell you whats going on….. good luck
