I’m a absolute mess I feel the biggest failure as a mammy 😭😭 my little boy is 2 he has cerable palsy, and he can’t eat solids he just won’t eat and is fully reliant on infrantrini he drinks 4 - 5 a day to maintain his calorie allowance and of course the milk is sugary, he also has severe sensory issues and sobs when we brush his teeth but we do it twice a day sadly it’s made no difference 😭. He was referred to a child dentist for treatment as he has holes and decay along his top teeth the treatment the dentist chose was to extract 12 teeth his entire top row no option of fillings or anthing he told me to stop giving him the bottle and make him eat …. He didn’t seem to understand that he has a disability and I can’t do that :( like I didn’t feel bad enough but I think it’s such a extreme option to remove his beautiful smile 4 years he will have no teeth even when he weans he will struggle to chew or learn to talk as he’s non verbal :( I don’t know what to do he’s awaiting my answer but It’s just a hard hard choice he’s not in any pain any advice I’d really appreciate
