[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 18061, member: 1161"] Just adding my hi. You've got lots of good advice to think about already. You definitely need an evaluation for your son. Your pediatrician needs to give you a referral, and if he won't I'd look for another who will pay attention to your concerns. in my opinion, mom just knows and the doctor should listen, as the doctor sees the child maybe twice a year, mom sees these things every day. Hey, I'd believe you about the same sandwich every day, my difficult child takes a ham and cheese sandwich for lunch every day of the school year. It has to be black forrest style ham, cheddar cheese on a kaiser bun. Does make it easier to make him lunch every day, nothing to have to decide between LOL. My difficult child still won't eat vegies, though he will now eat fresh corn on the cob (only no canned or frozen)and potatoes in other forms than fries. I agree with others about not pushing the food issues too hard. Try feed him as nutritionally as you can with what he will eat, and let him try bites of new foods whenever he will. I know in this way my difficult child has gradually moved from beef, ham chicken, cheese, bread and plain pasta, to also eating lasagne, shrimp, corn on the cob, apples, oranges a certain brand of pickles, plus other foods. So, slowly he's expanding what he'll eat and at 13 he's 5'10" about 175, so he hasn't done harm to his growth anyway LOL. Again, welcome to a wonderful site. [/QUOTE]
