🚩 Eating red flags (for getting dietitian or feeding therapist help) 🚩
• Feeding behaviors or eating difficulties that cause regular anxiety or concern for parents or child
• Eating behaviors that disrupt other current or desired activities.
• Anxiety with changes to mealtime settings (difficulty eating at home, restaurants, school)
• Weight loss, rapid decrease in growth percentiles, or rapid increase in growth percentiles
• Regularly eating less than 20 foods
• Continuing to lose accepted foods over time without gaining any new foods
• Frequent coughing, choking, or gagging during mealtimes or when drinking
• Only tolerates one or few textures OR gagging/disgust with most textures
• Difficulty swallowing, excessive drooling, or excessive food spilling from mouth during mealtimes
Other key points:
• If you are concerned or want help, then seek it. You don't NEED to have one of the above conditions met to talk to your medical team or ask for a referral.
• Where to find help: ask your pediatrician for a referral, ask your insurance about in-network providers, healthprofs.com, Google search "pediatric dietitian near me"
• Your doc is a crucial member of your medical team, but consider seeking help from a feeding specific professional (pediatric dietitian, feeding therapist, SLP or OT with experience in pediatric feeding disorders)
