    Some days I can't leave the house? Advice?

    I agree with soup! I've been going through this for my whole life. I have a small group of friends now. People who make me uncomfortable are out!

    Eating disorders/aspies

    Quintin chose Banana as his 'fruit' to try eating regularly and Potato as his 'vegetable' . I'm ok with this. One day he may choose a green or red fruit or veg. I'm pretty sure I also have PDD NOS as well so I'm doing what I can to help him without giving myself a nervous breakdown . Q

    Eating disorders/aspies

    Quin was enemic (iron deficit) and was given palafer ( liquid ) in juice daily . After a few months he had more energy. We stopped it for now. It tastes very metallic ! I am so happy he now eats bananas & some bagel with smoked salmon cream cheese.

    Eating disorders/aspies

    I started this thread ... Quintin is now 5 . Still an extremely limited & fussy eater, things are getting better. He stopped gagging & throwing up. I'm letting him try new things on his own . One day at a time. Less stress on my part as well. Still love reading the suggestions . Thanks

    Eating disorders/aspies

    Quintin enjoys his Turkey Meatballs with a ketchup dip. Someimes breakfast & dinner. He eats French Toast with real Maple syrup, and sometimes pasta(Mac & Cheese) I'm (mom) ok with these choices. He drinks his juice with fruit & veg ! I'm not pressuring him to try new things. He is calmer.

    Your obsessions when you were a child? (Or your child's obsessions?)

    Not only does Quintin love W, he loves going on YouTube and finding any Alphabet song he can. He loves the Alphabet so much that he even started learning the Sweedish alphabet because it was on YouTube:)

    My little boy

    I'm ok with the lengthy potty training. Does anyone know the amount a smallish four year old should be eating in order to thrive? I'm using 'pediasure' as a supplement now ( it has 26 vitamins & minerals) since he is an extremely fussy eater.

    Eating disorders/aspies

    Still waiting to here back from the Geneva Ctr. For Autism for my sons food refusal. I think i am going to have to pay for an OT out of my own pocket ($120/hr.) in Toronto. It seems to me that our health care only helps out fully Autistic kids. We will see

    Social Anxiety?

    Sometimes when talking to an other mother at my sons school, I'll get on a roll then I'll realize I'm off topic or ramble on....oops Since the cognitive therapy I don't care as much if I seem a little odd.
