Fussy Toddler

Hi! I've been through a previous version of the course and we learned so much. We applied good eating behaviours, offering three foods one of which a safe food, putting zero pressure, and I find we have a sticking point with my toddler. Hell very rarely try new foods on his plate (unless they are unusual, like mustard), he has a rejection of meat and fish and if he doesn't like one type of fish he'll exclude the whole category. He also doesn't eat wet foods. We wonder if he has sensory challenges or is somewhere on the spectrum but highly functional, given his behaviour with food and a few other things. Out of desperation, we have tried once to bargain with him and it does make him try a new food which he usually doesn't. Bit we're still stuck. His food choices are narrowing over time. Where do we go from here if we've identified he sensorially is very sensitive?
