My son ate fruit for his breakfast!


Ive had such a great morning and i need to tell someone who'll understand!My 2 1/2 has had lots of problems with his weight gain due to allergies. This meant when we weaned him his doctor wanted him on high calorie food and before i knew it he stopped eating anything healthy and only ate high protein high calorie food.It's been a battle getting him back on 5 a day and often leads to melt downs and refusle to eat every dinner time if something health is on his plate.I had enough when nursery said he hadnt eaten at all because each meal had something healthy contaminating his plate which lead to melt down so he didnt eat anything on his plate at all 3 meals.This morning i made a fruit salad for breakfast. Apples, Grapes, blueberries, stawberries and Bananas.He chewed and spit out and started to lose his temper.I told him he had to swollow the food too but he was having none of it. So i asked him to pull up his shirt. I knocked on his belly and said its empty and he needed to swollow some food quick! He ate a bit of Banana and i pointed to his belly and said "Look theres the Banana!"He laughed and ate another peice. By the end of breakfast he was Stuffing the fruit down and LAUGHING at the same time!!!I kept talking to the fruit in his belly and knocked to see if his belly was full yet (it wasnt 😂) and he kept eating more.Im so proud of us! I didnt get mad at all and he actually ate something without tears and screaming. His laughter has made my whole day. Im one happy and proud mummy! via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2HT5LNY
