Sam goes through phases of eating everything on offer and other times where he just survives on air. We're in a surviving on air phase at the moment! But it doesn't help that we've been staying with my parents for two weeks, and daddy has only been with us for two days in those two weeks, so he's a bit out of sorts.

Sam won't eat fruit. Point blank. We have an on again off again love affair with sultanas and dried apple (but only if it's the tiny bits of apple that come in the packs with sultanas), but that's about the extent of his fruit eating. Vegies are a bit more successful, pasta is a hit, rice is great.

I'm kind of relieved he's doing two days per week at day care now. At day care he eats fruit and tuna and cheese and yoghurt and basically everything he refuses to eat at home.

But the power of hiding things in a bolognaise sauce - wonderful! He'll eat sausages and mince and that's about the only forms of meat he will consume.

I don't have solutions - just the knowledge that you are not alone!
