✨Here 👇 comment “PACIFIER” to learn more about supporting your baby’s oral motor skills for successful pacifier use✨

💛Pacifier refusal is common, and it doesn’t always mean babies don’t like pacifiers. Many actually have to learn how to use one. If the tongue isn’t cupping well, babies may push it out, chomp, or lose suction—leading to frustration💛

🍼Gentle oral motor support can help:
• Improve tongue cupping and suction
• Support coordinated sucking and breathing
• Make pacifier use feel easier and more soothing🍼

❤️Early support can make a big difference in feeding, regulation, and oral motor development—helping babies feel more confident and comfortable❤️

🍼Feeding struggles and tummy time tips—let’s make this journey a little easier. 💙 In this video, I’m helping a little one who’s been refusing the pacifier by showing parents gentle alternatives for tummy time!! When your baby won’t take the pacifier, there are still plenty of ways to nurture them and strengthen that important bond. One of my favorite methods? Tummy time on my chest! 🍼 It’s comforting for them and gives you that precious skin-to-skin connection🥰

Let me guide you through those tough moments with personalized tips and practical strategies that fit your baby’s unique needs.

✨Here 👇 comment “ME!” If you want to support your baby’s feeding development and check out The Feeding Connections Collection for in-depth guidance, videos, and handouts! ✨

💕In this video, I’m demonstrating how oral motor massage helps babies move their tongue up to the roof of the mouth. This action is key because it stimulates the vagus nerve, which plays a major role in the coordination of muscles involved in swallowing, breathing, and digestion!! By strengthening the tongue’s movement and connection to the palate, we’re setting the foundation for better feeding skills, from breastfeeding to transitioning to solids!

🎊The Feeding Connections Collection** dives deeper into these techniques with step-by-step instructions and resources to help your little one thrive at mealtime.

✨Here 👇 comment “ME!” for more information on my bundle and enjoy stress free feeds SOONER! The collection is here to help parents and therapists understand the critical link between oral motor development and feeding skills!✨
