[quote=Anonymous]OP, if you mean that your child really eats nothing but yogurt, you really might want to get a feeding evaluation to figure out what is going on. Someone me tinned a speech therapist. That would address issues like mouth strength, ability to move food through his mouth, and some sensory issues. An OT would also be able to address things if they are sensory. If its food aversions or anorexia, you might need something else. One of mine also consumed only milk at that age. Yogurt was one of the early foods we were able to successfully introduce. Another early food, which is totally unrelated, was waffles with butter and syrup. Yogurt with chunks or additives didn't work because of the particular muscle deficits and sensory issues my son had. It was a very long process to introduce other food, but he now has a lot of foods he'll eat. It's not a great diet and milk still plays a huge part in his daily calories. But, it's better. [/quote]
