[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 229917, member: 1722"] Food pickiness is most likely coming from sensory dysfunction. Duckie (at one point) tested positive for every food the dr tried except peanuts. She also is still allergic to the more common allergens: dust, pollens, mold, etc. But thankfully not cats. She is still allergic to all her inhalant allergies, but less so. Her food allergies weren't as bad as her inhalants, and she completely grew out of them with the exception of a borderline allergy to soy. I think it would be prudent to look into it, however Duckie is unusual compared to most of the kids on this site. The most common problems seem to be neurological or mental health problems, fetal alcohol or in utero drug exposure, early abuse or neglect by a caregiver or another child or other medical problems (like Duckie). She seems to have escaped the worst of her genetic make-up and one day may grow out of her difficult child title. While I would rule out medical illnesses (including sleep disorders) I would also aggressively look at mental health (mood disorders, etc) and neurological disorders (like autism). Pay special attention to sensory problems as they seem to be present in almost all our kids. [/QUOTE]
