Grub is 4 and an extremely fussy eater! Im not sure what to do with him anymore! I have tried ignoring the problem, encouragment, rewards (bribery) and being firm with him. I thought that as he got older he might overcome this, but he is actually cutting out more and more food groups - now the only things he eats is, apples, strawberries, bread (either with honey or vegemite), plain pasta (no sauces), or dry cereal - and thats it! No meat, vege or dairy and little fruit! He seems to have a very sensitive stomach - the smell of a roast cooking had him throwing up! And every meal time he just about has a panic attack?! Any ideas???
Ive made an appointment to see a dr tomorrow to see if there is a medical reason, but just wanted to see your thoughts as well :confused:

DS1 is like that, but yours seems to be a little extreme???:confused: I don't really have any advice, as I'm still trying to get DS1 to eat just one little pea!!:hair: But I just put it down to his age group.:rolleyes:

But one thing I did do is get his bloods done to make sure he wasn't lacking.:yes:

But I'd definately take him to a GP and then a specialist. Because throwing up over a roast cooking is odd? Although mum used to cook liver for the dogs and I'd have to leave the house!!:D

Good Luck.:hugs:
