Damon is officially 1yr old and still is on the bottle only for his feeding needs. Damon has huge sensory aversions with his mouth. Florence's chocolates to the rescue! I'm dead serious. We've been through several weeks of intense OT targeting his feeding only, (before they worked on his basic mobility) and no real improvement until he was given a chance at Florence's again. Next attempt after that, he showed real progress, getting yogurt and several pieces of fruit puffs down without vomiting them up again. Woohoo! I know this sounds crazy, but when a baby is so sickened by any food, the therapists whole heartedly encourage getting them to eat anything edible, regardless of nutritional value. He's got to learn to eat to survive. So bring on the Florence's! Oreo cookies are helping too... :)
