getting started with a picky eater

[Guest guest]

Hello,

My son Sam is a 2 yr 11 mo old diagnosed with PDD/NOS. At the advice

of his neurologist, gastroenterologist and a nutritionist we are going

to start him on a cf/gf diet. We are very excited about this, but

also quite concerned as he is an incredibly picky eater who detects

changes in the brands of foods he eats (let alone major ingredients)

and pushes away anything he is not familiar with. He's very skinny

(5th % weight / 90th % height) so we're quite concerned about

introducing things in a way that will disrupt his diet as little as

possible. Any tips from other parents of picky eaters on what has and

hasn't worked for you?

Many thanks,

Shamez Kanji.
