if he is eating then it's good keep doing that.... but I wud say give one vegetable for two three days at least..... so it will register in his mind n ull also knw which he likes the most n allergies too

hi priya I wud suggest u give him everything n give him what u cook for urself otherwise it will be a problem in future that he is not eating wat u eat ....my son is 19 months old I make him eat everything wat I eat I make everything less spicy for everyone no special food for him excpet he is teething n not eating anything ......like this in some time we will make only one type of food for everyone no sperate cooking. n this gives them confidence also. I do give him veggies saute in butter as snacks n all but rest same food

hi priya I totally agree with mansi gv him the habit of wtever to all hv no seperate food for him .... its good tht ur concern abt his diet n u r on right track too khichdi with one vegge or leafy veggi s gd diet for him at this age grp but slowly start with rasam too at night as it gd for digestion. . n gv kootu aviyals n poriyals in between tym like just few spoons of kootu by 4 or by 5 aviyals by 11 morn .. weekly once gv him tippilli rasam tooo ... hv a note abt food if he get allegric to some stuff..
