I was'ny sure whether to put this here or in special needs, so will try here first.
DS has AS, he has never had a good varied diet, despite attempt after attempt, he only eats around 12 different foods, if that, he will not try new food at all, also food cant touch each other on the plate, he has a special plate with segmants.
It has always been hard especially meal times as I have to cook 2 seperate meals most times, however, now he has started refuses the food he normally eats, so his choice is becoming extremely limited, unfortunatly through desperation over the years his diet contains foods that are'nt great, for example, burgers and spaghetti hoops, the only veg he eats are raw carrots, fortunately he loves various cereals (no sugar) and a few fruits, and loves to drink milk and water and 1 bottle of actimel a day, however I am still getting increasingly worried about his health, more so now he has started refuses foods he would normally eat, spag bol being the latest.
His paediatrician has given him a good look over and thankfully there are no signs of any deficiencies, but I feel its onlt a matter of time before his health suffers especially in the long term. I have been told there is no specialists out there that deal in this area, has anyone had similair problems and can give me some tips on what to try.
