Questions & Answers - Food Concerns
We would really like to know if you have any child food therapists
listed in Jakarta, Indonesia? Actually the problem I am facing is that
my 16 month old daughter's eating is reducing, meaning she starts
resisting from the 1st bite itself. Is that normal? I end up forcing her
to eat and getting frustrated myself! The mealtimes have become
extremely stressful for me as well as my daughter. I keep surfing the
net all the time for new recipes but she rejects almost everything. Am I
overly worried or do we need to seek early intervention from a
therapist?
I found the website for the Children's Therapy Center in Jakarta
and through another link I also saw that one of their speech
therapists by the name of Evi Sabir has completed training in
feeding therapy. This is the link:
http://www.kailila.com/Services/Services.html , there are phone
numbers and emails on their site. I would definitely contact them
for more information on getting a feeding evaluation completed for
your daughter, since addressing the problem now is important. From
experience, we have found that there is no such thing as an overly
worried parent...you know your child best and if you are worried,
stressed and frustrated, then there is a problem that needs
addressed. I hope someone at the above link can help you or direct
you to another occupational therapist/speech therapist/ feeding
specialist in your area.
