Hi I am new to this website and board. My son was born at 35 weeks and seems to have one thing after another He is now almost 18 months. He has had Reflux since the day he came out. And due to that we are about to do our second endoscope and colon scope. He had weight gain issues but thankfully we have gotten past that.
DS has had delays also he was in PT from 8 months till 16 months. He has been in OT since 9 months and that is when got the DX of SPD and SID. He is sensory seeking and has feeding issues. I can handle the sensory issues it is the feeding ones I am at my wits end with. He does not eat most food and now he is starting to eat less and less. Right now the only foods he will eat are toast, yogurt, Crackers, chicken nugguts, fish sticks, and morning star nugguts. Sometimes he will eat pasta or cheese sandwichs or like fruit snacks but it all depends on his mood. I don't know what to do anymore with his feeding his therpist says to just keep feeding him what he will eat but now he does not even want to eat them. Any one else deal with this? Please any ideas or anything else you can help me with this issues. Thank you so much for any help.

My daughter is 13 months and is still eating primarily 2nd stage baby foods. She has just started eating small table food like pieces of bananas or green beans but will only eat one or two bites. She has been in ot since she was 7 months So I have a bit of an idea what you are going through. I don't really have much advice as we are still working on this as well. However, there are some really helpful mammas on this board and hopefully they will give you a few tips! Good luck with your little one

He also did not eat anything but 2nd foods till he was about 13 months then one day refused it.

We are also dealing with sleep issues I forgot to say. He still does not sleep through the night, or takes naps. He takes along time to go down and then when he wakes up he will come to bed with me and sleep rest of night. But in his crib he will not sleep he wakes several times. And he will not nap most days unless it is in his carseat. Thanks for any help.
