My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
Hi Colleen...
Not only do OT's work on helping individuals increase their independence performing their ADLS but we also focus on finding meaning in ones life...such as finding balance in ones life to participate in purposeful, meaning occupations (such as hobbies, leisure activities-crafts, cooking, sports, reading, etc.) I found this website for you and your friend that you may find interesting. It is a brief overview of how OTs work with individuals with eating disorders. Hope this helps.
