My DS is 4 and has been fussy since about 18 months. I keep hearing that he'lol improve with time but is worse if anything. At the moment the only protein he'all eat is those wretched turkey dinosaurs (Bernard Matthews) which I'm only serving about once or twice a week in the interests of getting him to try new things. Am actually quite worried now that he isn't getting what he needs.
My baby DD is 7 months so just starting to be able to eat pretty much what we have and I've been looking at recipes for the both of them but just keep thinking there's no point in me making lovely homemade sauces as he won't even try anything new. It's so depressing.
Just wondered what others are doing with entrenched fussy eaters who won't try new foods. I either feed him the same bloody thing day after day (surely not responsible and will never change the situation) or serve up healthy balanced meals that I KNOW 100% he won't touch. It's a waste of time money and effort! I really want to feed them the same thing but he will either starve or just pick out the plain pasta like he does now. I just hate this!
