What suggestions do you have for a 10 month old (7.5 adjusted) preemie with Down's who only "sucked" paci reflexively the first few weeks of life and has just now been released to try feedings orally? She is still on an NG tube with no active suck. Start with sippy cup and introduce spoon tastes, forget the bottle? -Indianapolis
