ARFID and weaning
So I have had ARFID since I was small and I really really struggle with my own diet.
I knew weaning my little one onto food would be difficult but I didn't realise how much. Has anyone else been through similar and have any tips?

It'd probably be easier to explain what I'm not struggling with 😬😞 Honestly it's everything. The smells, the textures of all these foods that he is tying and then having to clean him up afterwards when the textures are all over him. I really don't want him to struggle the way I do so I need to get a handle on this. 😞
We really let dad handle purée like mixes on a spoon, and I introduced baby to pouches and then we went straight for baby led weaning
