Acquired CP can be the outcome of a variety of issues that arise after the first 28 days of a baby's existence. A CP diagnosis can now be made as early as 16 weeks. speech-language pathologists (SLPs) began collaborating with OTs and PTs for Infants and toddlers who also struggle with speech impediments, feeding and swallowing disorder. Oral motor exercises (OMEs), also known as "mouth exercises," "non-speech oral motor training," and "oral motor treatment" were designed for their treatment.
