[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 200044, member: 1233"] First off, I am sorry you have these issues. Does your son see an Occupational Therapist for the sensory issues? If yes, you probably already do brushing therapy. If you do see an Occupational Therapist (OT) and don't know the brushing therapy, ASK her to teach you or get a new Occupational Therapist (OT) and have them teach you. If you don't see an Occupational Therapist (OT), GET ONE ASAP. And learn brushing. It helps the brain learn to handle sensory input, including food taste and textures. We had HUGE improvements in thank you after we learned brushing. We did it several times a day, never pushed food, just had healthy food around and at meals, and about 2 months after we started brushing we realized he was EATING regular meals as long as he wasn't allergic to anything in them!!!! thank you is picky. Wiz would actually vomit if we tried to force foods. thank you will refuse to eat them. thank you has food allergies. Often stuff he refused at 3-4-5-6 yo was stuff that he would have a serious or not serious reaction to. serious is trouble breathing. Not serious is red cheeks, red bottom (even AFTER toilet training was over for years it would hurt to have a bowel movement as the food came out). There were also behavioral problems that came up when thank you had food he reacted to. But he would refuse so MANY foods. We got a lot of help with brushing and with getting the junk food out of the house. Keep the junk OUt of the house, or in a locked area only. Keep healthy food around. If you are sure he is not allergic, try that cookbook where the woman pureed veggies adn "snuck" them in the kids food. It might help. [/QUOTE]
