Mum Stacey A'Hearne said she is desperate
A desperate mum is pleading for help with her daughter's rare condition which sees her eating household items such as their sofa and even glass.
The little girl has even started waking up in the night to chew on her cot and blanket she's sleeping in. Mum-of-two Stacey must be on "high alert" due to the severity of Wynter's condition and hoping to help other parents of children with pica. “No matter what she finds a way to eat things that she shouldn’t. Luckily, she's never really hurt herself as I very closely monitor her, but it’s a full-time job watching her."
A couple of years later, in January 2024, after further tests, Wynter was also diagnosed with autism. Stacey said: "Babies always put things in their mouth, but when she was doing it a lot I started to think it wasn't normal. "It is exhausting to have eyes on her 24/7 but I've got into a good routine, and I understand her needs."
