I am just wondering if the baby has had it's palate evaluated yet. It is possible that the tubing he was intubated with could over time create an abnormality of the palate b/c if the constant pressure. This could also be a cause of the hard time feeding. Just a thought.
Have a blessed day,Merideth M. Buell, BFPCDSHS [log in to unmask]
