When Your Babies Won't Eat with Shannon Goldwater of Feeding Matters

#324: Shannon Goldwater was a first time mom with micro preemie triplets who would not - and could not eat. She spent years with her babies getting bumped around various inpatient feeding programs while getting increasingly frustrated with their fractured care. All of this led her to found Feeding Matters, the first organization in the world uniting families and healthcare professionals to improve the system of care for children with pediatric feeding disorder. In this first of two episodes, Shannon shares her personal story and immense feeding challenges that she experienced with her own children.
