I know nothing about Noonans, but some about Turners.  Another issue with
Turners is that often there is channel palate, and significant oral motor
weaknesses in neonates.  They often have weakness of suck  and feeding
problems.  Please check the palate configuration.  Channel palate mimics
some of the same challenges found in feeding infants with clefts of the
palate.
