:-) Okee Doekee, How about:
1) Suck improvement training: SIT - as in training the tongue down and more
extended.
2) Suck aversion therapy: SAT - as in reconditioning after exposure to noxious
stimuli.
3) Tactile oral triggering: TOT - as in suck stimulation in the sleepy baby
and suck assessment.

Think I could do a two day workshop on that? ;-DDDDDD
