I am stressing about Kameron at the moment. He is usually picky at tea (what 6yr old isn't), but will eat all of his weetbix (3) and lunch etc each day and have yoghurt or bread or fruit as a snack in between meals. Usually he doesn't stop eating, which I am usually complaining to myself about how he costs me a fortune in food.
Anyway for the last good week to week & half he hasn't been eating. Only a couple of teaspoons of breakfast, at lunch (well i am not sure at school), he only a couple of bites of a sandwich and when it comes to tea we are lucky to get anything into him, he has even dropped right back on the snacking between meals. The 12pk of yoghurt i brought on Friday is still sitting in the fridge untouched, and we've normally gone through half of them by now.
He has been complaining of a sore belly a bit, but I have normally just put it down to him not eating and the sore belly being "hunger pains" Last night he threw up in bed, it was chunky but didn't smell (sorry for tmi).
Mum thinks that maybe he is constipated, as he was constipated a couple of weeks ago on Ashtons b/day party, as he went to the toilet about 6 times before 11am and complained then that he was having trouble doing poo. But I have heard no such complaints since then.
I am really lost as to what to do next. Yesterday he was at mums asking how many kilo's he weighed, and tonight he asked me as well and I told him that he doesn't have to worry about weight, but he was around 19kg. I am not one to watch my weight, so can't be getting that from me, and not really sure if that is a factor in him not eating.
Has anyone got any ideas of what we could do or what the problem could possibly be, we have even served up his favourite foods and he still hardly touches it.
Due to being sick last night he stayed home from school today, but if tonight goes fine then he will be back there tomorrow and I will be asking his teacher about him eating at school as well.
I am even considering taking him to the doctor if it keeps up.
Love
