Psych Update

Steve and I had an appoint,ent today with the psych about Brendna's eating.
I've come home feeling very drained and red eyed. That's 2 days in a row now I've went up to the hospital and ended up in tears.
Note to self: don't go to appointments when suffering form PMS LOL

It kinda turned out to be just Steve and I sitting discussing Brendan's eating with the psych listening and asking the odd question.
Was an interesting appointment.
She did ask why I wanted things to change. All I know is I have this strong feeling that the low variety of fodds Brendan eats, the fact he doesn't eat anything hot and that he gags at new things isn't right. But if you ask me why it' not right then I don't know.

So we've come away with a strategy to not put any pressure on any of us. That just to accept that Brendan will only eat the foods he does and not to push him to try anything else new. Perhaps he will eventually ask to try something we are having.
That there are some pretty big reasons, his palate, hsi reflux, etc why he won't eat many foods and we should just accept that well he has a physical reaason for it and he is happy eating what he does eat so we should be too. If that makes sense.

I can't seem to gte out my head into here all what I'm thinking and feeling right now.
Being a parent is so damn hard.
