My poor ds (who's 1 on Wednesday) has had every bug going since starting nursery in January. Over the last 3 weeks he's had a really bad fluey throat infectiony thing, swiftly followed by the good old d&v. The throat thing made it very hard for him to swallow, and then of course the sick bug put him off his food too. He's lost tons of weight in this time (don't know how much but he's starting to look skinny to me). Now he is over his bug but seems to have gone back to square one with regard to food textures. He gags on even well mashed food and with finger food seems to put too much into his mouth at once and then gag and puke. I've had to go back to sloppy purees. Feel very depressed and worried about this because I want to build him up, and he'd just begun to have a really varied diet of food like we'd have, and now it's all vegetable slop and yogurt again.
Guess I'm just posting for people to tell me it's OK and he's not going to starve or be one of those toddlers who grows up only eating chocolate mousse. Not that I feed him chocolate mousse but you KWIM.
