I have a 4 1/2 month PRS baby and have been to heck and back
with feeding problems and finally found a way to feed my son with
a Haberman feeder holding his face. Then a month later the
cranialfacial team at Lucile Packer Childrens Hosp. said he has a
mild form of PRS. And I had figured it out alone If I had gotten
my appointment sooner they could have helped. So needless to say
I Have tried many different ways to feed. If I can share my
experience with anyone I Would LOVE to do so, so that my
knowledge is used and not wasted without sharing.
