Hi Stacey, that doesn't sound too bad, especially since he's sick and probably gone off his food for a bit. I find that my DD who is almost 12 months will eat much more if she feeds herself. If I feed her with a spoon from a bowl, she'll lose interest faster than if I place the food in small chunks on her tray. For dinner, even if it's something sloppy like stew or a thick soup, I can tear up bits of wholemeal bread, soak up the stew and place the blobs on her tray. Doesn't loom appetising but she seems more enthusiastic that way about the meal.
