Re: A backward step...
Thanks Lui
He is great at the pureed fruit and veg.. just not when it is whole. I had kinda got used to him being sick again, it is just hubby has been home for a couple of days and had no idea how regular it was! JB is getting so much better at self-feeding, but after one or two pieces he refuses to eat!!! I have tried leaving things around for him too but he plays with it.. so I have food to explore and food to eat.. that doesn't work!
I am so used to it now that I have no reaction to it lol I think it is his way of saying he is not happy with the foods.. he knows I tend to give him a puree after he doesn't eat his meal otherwise he has nothing in his tummy. I reward him with a yogurt when he does eat his lunch, if he doesn't finish lunch he has to wait until dinner for it.
I have tried so many foods with him and he just does not like a lot of things. He dislikes eggs, cheese, cucumber, any veg unless it is pureed, rice, chicken sticks, fish sticks (at the moment!) apples, oranges,
The solids he will eat are banana, pineapple, advacado, bread (not toast and it has to be without butter), ice cream, cookies, sweet potato puffs, pasta at a push!
I struggle so much with wanting him to eat healthily and just wanting him to eat! lol I have fed him chicken nuggets etc which I hate doing, but if he will eat them then great! I haven't tried noodles, but I will give that a go to see if he will eat them!
Thanks for your advice Lui! I really appreciate it!
