[quote=Anonymous]I am at a loss. My 3 year old constantly has to have things in his mouth, both edible and inedible. He puts toys in his mouth, but also things like chalk, soap, rocks, etc. it seems like a possible sensory issue. However, he is also fixated on eating and seems hungry all of the time. He will seek out food and is difficult to take places where food might be easily accessible because he will grab it! He is nonverbal, so we can only guess what he is thinking. Has anyone experienced this? Have you found any solutions? I was thinking of trying to see Dr. Irene Chatoor at Children’s, but would love any advice...[/quote]
