Children at this age tends to build affinity with breast feed and more than nutrition it becomes a psychological connect. You could bring in variety in foods and also try and feed him when he is busy in activity. Foods such as as Upma, Khichdi, Home Made Cerelac etc are nutritious options. For intake of foods you could try to give him smoothies (shake of mixed fruits and milk).

Hi Puneet All of a sudden you can't change your baby's food habit.. it will take time.. you have to start the process very slowly and have patience.. show him how you chew food and motivate him to chew it will take time
