Food

Hi all my son is nearly 6, he's had a diagnosis since he was 2 nearly 3.

I'm worried he's nor getting enough food.

He has restricted his food down to all of a few items.

Choc digestives, Milk, fruit biscuits, and chicken nuggets and chips.

I'm worried about him. We have plenty of support from his school but I'm still worried about his lack of eating. 

Please has anyone got any suggestions.

  • Similar to me.  I only ate egg and chips as a child.  I'm awfully suspicious of eggs nowadays though.

    My mum spoke to the doctor + he said 'if she only wants egg and chips, give her egg and chips'.

    I don't like meat, veg or fruit and my mum often spoke to me as an adult about trying to feed me when I was a child.

    I think that what matters the most is that there is some nutrition available in the food a child does eat and there is in the list above.

    All the best.
