My DD is turning 8 this year.
From birth she had a dairy intolerance.
At weaning stage we noticed that she was very fussy with textures of food & wouldn't eat certain things as they would make her sick just them being placed in her mouth.
We took her to the GP where she was referred to a dietitian, which they gave some advise but not much & stated that they would prescribe her supplements.
The supplements never became a thing despite the dietitian saying she would put this in place.
We are now a few years on & things haven't improved.
We tried to make sure she tries different foods but she would if they smell, look funny or doesn't like the feel of the texture.
She is being to get even more fussy with food.
She hardly eats any fruit, wont eat veg & wont have anything diary.
At birth she weighted 8lb 9.5oz but she is now very small for her age, that small that her 4 y/o cousin is the same heigh & I would say he is the average height for his age.
I have contacted my GP again for some more advise as we are worried about her.
Anyone been through this before or does anyone have any words of advise?
We are just so worried that when she is older that she is going to develop some sort of eating disorder.
Please be kind, it is a sensitive subject & as you can imagine I am in a state that I don't know what to do.
