Im posting this here as it's not so much what to get DS to eat, but more how to get him to eat?
He's always been pretty fussy with food and will go through stages where he hardly eats anything at all but the latest one has been going on for at least 2 months now. Im over the being frustrated and annoyed period beacuse of all the waste of time and money spent on new ideas and recipes. Now im just getting worried that he's not getting all the right vitamins etc that he should be!
He has a very small variety of foods that he will eat eg. sausages, yoghurt, weetbix, chicken nuggets, cheese, ham, toast, sometimes sandwiches. He will eat pasta, rice etc at CC but not at home. When i make stir-frys or curries, he will suck and chew the life out of the meat, but wont actually swallow it
I need ideas to make it FUN and get him to eat that way. Last week we had soft tacos on the floor of the lounge room like a picnic and he thought that was great. He ate the equivalent of a whole taco, which was actually really exciting! Tonight we made homemade pita pizzas and i let him sit on the bench and help make his. He had cheese and ham on his, two foods that he eats. He had 2 mouthfuls and said "no, i don't want it."
