I am out of my depth and need some wise input. I have a wee little fellow who has a laundry list of cardiac issues and has absolutely no suck or swallow reflex. I got the physio speech and language therapist involved and she has been using her techniques to absolutely no avail to get any sort of suction going on this little moppet. She has tossed the ball back in my court and has said she can't do anything more. I don't want to commit this mother to only gastric feeds of breastmilk at the breast, any suggestions or text books, or references would be greatly appreciated.
