[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 373595, member: 7916"] Oh, Boo, I so know where you are coming from. My difficult child eats yogurt, cheese, peanut butter, apples (sometimes), bread, and waffles. He recently ate some pasta and husband and I nearly fell over. Our pediatrician has difficult child taking an adult multivitamin (with no more than 100% of the daily rec amount for any single vitamin) and says that, though difficult child's diet is limited, it really isn't that bad. He's growing, he's healthy, and he isn't eating too much sugar or transfat. As for the toileting issues...I've been there on that one, too! difficult child did not start peeing in the toilet until he was almost 5 and 1/2. He did not have a BM in the toilet until he was almost 6 and 1/2. His younger sister was fully toilet trained before he was. There really was not magical solution for us. We worked on peeing in toilets away from home in places that seemed "friendly," like at his occupational therapist's house or in single stall public restrooms. difficult child is almost 8 now and these toilet issues are really a distant memory now. He still takes Miralax, but even his need for that is diminishing. It was hard when he absolutely would not use any toilet or any toilet except at home ( travel? what's that?) and it is hard to believe that we have come so far in that area. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
