    Dear karen34,

    Thank you for your question. When looking at possible sensory feeding it is always vital to work with a multi-disciplinary team including a SLT, Occupational Therapist and sometimes a Clinical Psychologist. My advice would be to discuss this with your GP.

    I am sorry I cannot help further.
