Kid me (from the 90s) was so jealous of my grandma who had a TV in every room. Now I don't even have a TV. I just watch stuff on the the laptop.

For me, my earliest inspiration was watching Conan as a kid

I become ruler of every duck I come across.

He liked them! He just ate 4 of them. Thank you again!

It was. I haven't edited my post.

Thank you! Yes, ARFID has been on my radar since learning one of my friends has it and I'm curious if my son has it as well. I've definitely been guilty of not hiding my excitement when he tries a new food, so that's a helpful note.

Yes I agree with all of this!

So far no. He doesn't like ice cream, which is so wild to me!

No I hadn't heard of those! I'll check them out

Yes, that may be the answer. He's getting help through early intervention and on the waitlist to get tested for autism so see if that's what's causing his picky eating. Luckily his pediatrician is not urgently concerned about his diet because he's growing well enough and seems healthy, but since I've stopped breastfeeding I've been keeping track of what foods he's been eating and noticed how few vitamins are in all the things he'll eat.

Lots of good ideas, thank you!

That's a good idea. It's rare, but sometimes he will nibble on banana chips.

 

Trying to keep my very picky eater 3yo healthy as we're (hopefully) expanding his diet. Right now the only foods I can get him to actually eat are McDonald's, a specific brand of yogurt, banana bread, some crackers and some bars. Refuses any beverage besides water. (He's likely on the spectrum.)
