Exactly WHAT is happening with the suck that's not normal? The exercises 
we choose are determined by what the baby needs to learn or unlearn!

If the baby's tongue movements are uncoordinated, this might be more 
than tt, there might be neuro issues. Sometimes "walking back on the 
tongue" and the "slideback" (slide fingertip along tongue midline from 
front to about mid tongue) help, as they mimic the normal sequence of 
muscle activation for the swallow.
