I have read many posts , they are similar to mine but not exact. My DS is 18 months now and is a refluxer. He will eat his mashed up fruit but only of it is like a liquid, he will eat cereal, must also be runny, he will eat yogurt as well so long as there are no lumps in it.. He will eat bread, chips but that is about it.
I have him on an iron supplement as he will not eat any meat. He will NOT eat pureed food, only fruit. I am at my wits end. I have tried everything. He does not like finger foods, he will only eat if we feed him. If I make him finger foods like fish sticks or chicken, pasta etc he just throws it on the floor and walks away. He will not sit in a high chair, he goes so crazy in it I am scared it falls over....
He has a good routine, and sleeps well, this is his routine but I do not think it is a problem...
06h30 wake and has a bottle
09h00 cereal
10h00 tea
10H30 bath and nap
12h30 juice
13h00 lunch - normally yogurt and fruit pureed
15h00 juice and biscuit
17h00 dinner - either cereal, yogurt or fruit
18h30 bottle
19h00 bed
I have spoken to his paed and he does not seem concerned at all, he says he is just a dairy baby and he will change in time... Am I worrying for nothing? He seems healthy but I do not know how I can get him to try other things...
Any ideas?
