DS2 is now 12months. He has refused anything from a spoon since starting weaning at 6 months, and the most he has ate is a tiny nibble at some broccoli stalks and he will take a fruit puree from a pouch intermittently. Everything else is a no go and I am at my wits end with worry about him
He is otherwise well and developing normally. His weight has dropped a centile so he is being reweighed next month byt health visitor is stumped.
He was exclusively breast fed first 6 months. He is still.breastfeeding now and this is obviously his main source of nutrition but I worry about him missing out on other vital stuff and also not learning how to physically chew and swallow!! But I don't know how to make him eat.
I work full time so he is left 10h a day so he does get the chance to be hungry. He wint even take a bottle so is just having water and a bit of fruit pouch in that time.
To help, he is CMPA and egg allergic.
Any advice would be appreciated esp from those who have been through this. I am so.worried for him, feel like a complete failure and dont know what to do.
