The nutritionist who gives us advice about DS2's diet, allergies etc has said that we can start slowly reintroducing foods that we removed because of eczema and bowel reactions, now that both his skin and his gut are so much better. I was keen to do so, but very sceptical that DS2 would allow this - he eats only familiar things in familiar colours and shapes - and he hasn't touched any of these foods for about two years.
Anyway, today he ate a blueberry - pushed it away the first time, but then put it in his mouth when I said ' First try this, then ice cream'. And then this evening I put a few in with his grapes and he ate the lot . This has made me ridiculously happy, and no-one in RL will understand .
Now we have to continue for 3-7 days and watch him like a hawk for any reaction.
