I'm thinking of giving a pass to wood for Jake. I just can't figure out what food group it would be, though. This boy will chew on anything wood. His crib rail, the coffee table, Jenga pieces, blocks, the leg of the kids' Ikea table, whatever he can roll/scoot/army crawl to. He's been sampling it for over a week now. Surely wood is a pass, right?
In the meantime... we're on day three of butternut squash. No real reactions yet, just a little burpy. I'm starting to think that burpy is his normal and I'm overreacting to reactions. The past two days have been great, actually. He's been very happy. He's been napping well. And only up twice during the night. That's normal for us. Sad, isn't it?
Hahaha, my little man passes then too! I just noticed the other day he has actually chewed THROUGH (as if sanding down) his bed rail on his crib!!! He chews on train tracks, lincoln logs, always has a stick from outside in his hand and tries to eat it,...he loves wood! What is UP with that?! It's true, it doesn't seem to bother him though!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's PICA, maybe it's normal, maybe their is a nutrient they are lacking because of their gut inflammation that wood provides! :) Probably perfectly normal...;)
