How Do I Know if My Baby Needs Feeding Therapy with @msdawnslp Dawn Winkelmann, MS, CCC-SLP

#152: When does a baby need feeding therapy? And how do I know if my baby needs feeding therapy? Even the phrase “feeding therapy” strikes fear into the heart of parents and caregivers…but feeding therapy is not a bad thing! In this episode I’m interviewing baby-led weaning expert and feeding therapist Dawn Winkelmann, MS, CCC-SLP to explore feeding therapy for infants.   Dawn and I co-teach a number of baby-led weaning programs together, but in this interview we’re exploring feeding therapy for babies. What are the signs of feeding disorders? Is my baby’s feeding issue normal or would we benefit from feeding therapy? Dawn is also discussing the different types of feeding therapy and why some of her clients only need a few sessions before getting back on track with baby-led weaning.   If you’re ready to raise an independent eater and prevent picky eating then let’s get started learning about baby-led weaning together!
