for the last month or so ds has been on the steady slope towards becoming a VERY fussy eater!!! I am at a loss as to what to do..

Up until now, I have NEVER had any problems with him eating,he ate anything and everything. He never complained, whinged or cried, but just over night it seems he does not want ANYTHING!!

He won't eat his favourites (Lasagne, canalloni, rissoles, vegies,fruit etc), infact he is refusing to eat anything we put in front of him.

Meal times are becomming a nightmare as I try to remain calm and act normal when he refuses his breakfast, lunch and dinner.

We always eat meals as a family, nothing has changed in his routine. I have tried getting him to help me make the meals, shop for the food to make it with, serving himself from a comunal platter, making it look appetising, giving him a choice in what he wants etc etc, he just won't eat it! He will tell me he wants something, I will make it for him, then he tells me nooo i don't like it or I don't want it... aaarrrggghhhh

Each day is getting harder and harder to try and ignore it and not make a big deal out of it, but i need to know WHY??? Why all of a sudden is he refusing to eat anything?? what has changed, how can I fix it? it is getting worse each day.

The only things I can think of is he is getting 2 molars and he did have a vomiting/runny poo bug for the last week but why would this make him say no to EVERYTHING 1 month before hand???
PLEASE HELP BEFORE I TEAR MY HAIR OUT!

I have even started smoking again and I haven't had a ciggarette in over 3 years!
