    Hugs Jak,

    My eldest was a bit like this. I hopeful find a place/specialist to help you. We had to wait until DS1 was old enough to explain why he had to eat a 'balanced' diet. (when he did nutrition at school, then he would come home and ask questions about the food we eat)

    You can try your local council / MCHN and see if they run a basic course for 'fussy' eaters. My gf did one with her son.

    I have two extremely fussy eaters here, so I've cracked the whip on their eating habits and being very firm (whereas before I think I was a bit of a pushover because I just wanted them to eat - so they would snack all day and not eat when supposed to!).

    If they don't eat what I've served - too bad. Just keep on serving it and she will eat. I'm not saying you are a pushover like me (I didn't even really realise what I was doing) but I've been firmer this last week and DD1 and DD2 are both starting to eat better. Not that they have started eating dinner yet, but I'm sure that will come in time..... right? LOL

    Do you have fox? There is a children's cooking show called I Can Cook. Maybe that might inspire her to do a bit of cooking and eating.

    I've recently been to a pead about my DS who is 5 and eats 10 different foods.- no vegies, no fruits, no sauces, no pastas no meats.

    We were told he'd grow 'out of it' and the small list of foods he does eat are providing him with enough nutrition.

    If you find anything out please let us know. I'd honestly be stoked if my son ate what your little one eats.
