Hello,
This is my first post, really hoping for any supportive advice please :)
My son is 2yrs and 3 months old. Second child (big sister is 6). He is a happy active child, nursery twice per week, and development normal. Weaning went brilliantly, he would eat anything we gave, meat, pastas, potatoes, vegetables of any colour any consistency; his sister eats brilliantly too.
BUT that all seems to have stopped!! These past 5 months he has been refusing more and more foods, EVEN spagetti bolognese, yorkshires and roast potatoes....surely all children love those!!
Basically now he will pretty much only eat:
Toast
Chips
Shreddies
Sausages, burgers, nuggets, chicken breast
Fruit
Cucumber
Sweet corn
Yogurts
Cheese
But he used to eat rice meals, fish, pasta meals, roasts, jacket potatoes, broccoli, baked beans, peas, carrots, any sandwiches, soups, you name it...he ate it. He has rice cakes and raisins as snacks, but I've tried offering no snacks in the hope he's eat more dinners.
How can I get him to eat vegetables again, or even baked beans?! I would just like him to eat a more balanced diet again. Do others believe this is just a long phase or normal fussy eating?
Any tips or experiences gratefully received,
Thanks
Claire ??
