Will THIS help Mikko EAT?!

This time we try, or retry, a suggestion someone had that we should give Mikko PediaSure due to her food aversion. As we said before, we are exploring as many different food options as we can with her so she has a better chance of getting all the nutrients she needs. Let's see if this works!

Yes my daughter is like mikko with big sensory needs the pediasure and smoothies don't work on my daughter anymore unfortunately but before she use to love them and i use to use to help keep some fat and vitamins on her for when she wouldn't eat right. She take feeding therapy. One tip the therapy said is try getting her to play and explore with bits of foods or snacks at a time, even touching it is progress. My daughter went from not wanting eggs to eating eggs and it was simply by trying the trick therapy said try adding the tatortots in her eggs for example and serve it to her. It took her some time but now she actually eats eggs now and finally is back to eating rice and sometimes picking at beans too. What i notice with her she doesn't like the mushy or too wet feeling in her foods. She won't go towards anything thick but she likes the sweet foods like pancakes or waffels because the syrup she seems to like getting messy though at times because its sticky so i have to tie hair back and have a wet soapy rag close and change her after. My child likes more crunchy foods if anything like nuggets, fries , pizza bites, she eats broccoli and carrots but not gonna lie it took her awhile for her to get where she was eating everything to then refusing to have foods, to now having some. Its definitely a struggle, I would like to see her eating more healthier but something is better then nothing at this point.

I hear lots of little things that she's trying to say! My little one is 3 and autistic and learning lots of new words also... they are really hard to understand until it clicks in my brain what hes saying and then i hear it all the time. I hear that pre-language development in Mikko as well! So awesome!! Edited to add : Super Simple Songs on YT has been amazing at helping my son learn words and then he slowly starts using those words in everyday communication with me

The way I cheered when she drank the banana one 🙌🙌🙌🙌 That's so great to see!! Kids tastes change so fast I know it's hard to keep up. I was the same way. Super glad to see she likes them. 👏👏 I noticed when she was having issues with the shirts. Maybe something you can try is to pick out a few outfits ahead of time and lay them out and not have anything else out so she only sees what's out in front of her. Sometimes having too many options can be overwhelming, it is for me. Also consider getting her tops that are a little big on her so that if she wants to put on shirts over sweaters she can. Layering provides a level of comfort for me, makes me feel protected and applies a bit of soothing pressure. I also have issues with clothes that are too tight. My stomach area is sensitive so most of my clothes are technically a size or 2 larger than what I can normally fit into. I've talked with a lot of other Autistic people that do the same thing. Gimme a big oversized hoodie, fluffy pants and warm socks and I'm a happy girl 😁 Again super happy she drank the pedisure!! 👏👏👏🩷

She's getting so big and just collecting more and more tools and just doing so good! My youngest who struggles with autism and ADHD is going through this not eating phase and picky phase. At his school they weigh them every Friday cuz certain children are on medication and have dietary needs and all that so about a month ago they realized he lost some weight because he just refuses to eat. So we had to do this whole food program and just a lot of trial and error and just continuously staying on him every hour you want a snack ,are you hungry? We reintroduced old foods that he used to like and stopped liking and so many things. It's gotten a lot better in the past couple weeks he has gained 5 lbs back and he's eating more but it is still a fight sometimes to get him to pick something to eat and just eat. Love Mikko, so glad she's doing so well ❤❤❤

You can put the nutrition drinks in the freezer for about 30 min, shake it, and put it back. Continue to shake (while in the feezer) until it has the consistency of ice cream. Perhaps she'll eat it then👍

I'm not crying. My allergies are acting up🥹. Omg. Mikko's progress is amazing. It's a reflection and a testament of love, compassion, patience, and understanding. Mom, you are a strong and beautiful woman, wife, and mother whose love and care knows no bounds. You are a selfless, dedicated woman. You do whatever it takes to ensure your children's safety, well-being, and success. You nurture, protect, and give them guidance every day. I would like to take time to acknowledge your other children. They're so humble, intelligent, respectful, compassionate, and patient. Y'all are definitely raising them right. I see Mikko holding full conversations in the near future. Her meltdowns will decrease, and who knows? They may even stop altogether. She will become more confident in her abilities, and that's all due to the fact that she has a loving family that never gave up on her. She is being guided, loved, and supported through every step of this journey. I can see the joy in mom's face whenever Mikko shows progress or does something. Blessings to you all❤

Pecious, at 1:20 Mikko is clearly indicating that she wants to wear the same white top that you are wearing. My daughter is neurotypical. At age 3 she desperately needed ear tubes. She didn't communicate much better than Mikko at the time. It was a constant struggle. "Show me" became the only way that we could communicate until she finally got the ear tubes. I see Mikko communicating more and more. She uses her eyes, her attitude, everything she's got. Beautiful child, beautiful parents, beautiful family.

Blow this up and share this around!!! Reasons Kids and Teens may Not Eat: Loss of Appetite ( not feeling any hunger) She may need an appetite stimulant to make her feel hungry to make her want to eat. Food refusal Sensory differences The child eats too little Distractions Illnesses Pressure Snacking between meals Pressure to eat Constipation Fear of new foods Picky eating No Safe foods are around Feedback Insecurities about Weight / Food intake ( this one might be for older kids) Now I do not want to scare you but if it gets worse and her not eatting lasts for a very very long time and she loses weight to the point she's skin and bones or looks ill, you might: Need to See the Doctor Need a G-tube if she has trouble eatting Need a Nutritionist Little Tricks: I grew up with a G-tube till the age of 7 because Me and my twin were Premature and for some reason had lots of trouble with Eatting My Mom would put on my favorite TV show and she'd pause it and every time I took a bite of food she'd let me watch it only if I ate or give me candy to bribe me that eatting is fun and good , Try this! Uh, yeah I hope this helps..

My 3 year old is big into the helping phase right now. She wants to help with EVERYTHING. So I understand grocery shopping struggles lol. She's also turned into a very picky eater recently so I give her options. I put out 2 or 3 things she likes to eat and let her choose 1. I always make sure there are fruits in the fridge because she will ask for them at any time of the day or night. And I got kids multivitamin gummies from Olly (she thinks they're candy) and she has 1 twice a day. She LOVES them and gets excited when it's time to have one. Maybe something to look into for sweet Mikko ❤
