Jordie, don't feel bad, you're only human hun! You're learning to be a parent and can only go on the advice that's given to you, especially when you have clearly been worried and asked for information/advice before now. Also if you're going to blame anything then blame the overloaded health system that was quite happy to make you wait until December before giving you some specialist advice and the parenting centre that waited a month to call you!

The important thing is that you have taken the steps that you need to take now, the window of opportunity is still open, and you will get the information and help that you need. The people at the hospital will be very specialised and will be able to give you very specific help. It will be a load of worry off your mind once they have identified what is causing the reactions and also once you have a plan on how to tackle the eating end of things.

Be kind to yourself sweetie. xxx and
Let us know how you get on today.
