Eating paper

We finished the second week without any supplements. Everything is good. But i see some bad behaviour slowly coming up again.

One is eating paper (also called PICA) and chewing on everything like crazy. I also see an increase in head stimms during play. Nicky also chews a lot on his clothes again.

I know that it can be a high blood level of lead, it also can be that his body has iron-deficiency anaemia or that zinc is missing.

So, because we do not eat any more fish any longer (full with lead!) and Germans haven't used lead in ages in their houses, we can ignore the lead problem for now (we also had no high lead levels in the last test anyway!).

And when it comes to iron, it was not in Nicky's supplement program. So i guess it really is zinc that's missing.

So i hope that the next issue of InStyle magazine will be left for mom and not for the mouthing Mr. Nick.
