Guest guest Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Carol, LOL, I know I'm such a pian in the you know what.... This sounds like something we went through with Dominick. Dominick's muscle in the mouth and face were weak( the leaking formula was the clue, and the tongue thrust would make sense too) and he would just get tired after drinking a while and so he would only take like five ounces when he should have been sucking down eight. The exercises I told you about will help all that too. That would be where I would start. The only other thing I can possibly think of is he is teething and his mouth hurts and this too shall pass. Ok I'm done,lol. I hope something helps. CAROLG > >> >> HI.....FIRST QUESTION......HAS ANYONE ELSE BEEN TOLD THAT THEIR > >> > BABY HAS A " FORWARD TONGUE THRUST?
