Hi Mamapan

DD2 didn't want solids until she was 9months. We struggled and then one day she just started eating.

Personally I would look more at just offering finger foods and let him play. Don't be concerned about how much he is getting. Your aim atm is to introduce him to new tastes and textures.

BTW I always found breakfast and lunch to be more successful than dinner time. My babies tent to be grumpy in the arvos and eating is just too much for them. HTH
