Hi Dear
welcome to the HCM
We should start introducing to give the semisolid food from the age of 6 months. To inculcate the habit of eating semi solids so that after one or two months he gets some idea of food other than the milk and chewing habit.
Add some iron tonics and multivitamins.
Even if he do not accept the semisolids still we have to give him very frequently.
Gradually eating habits will be developed and he will start eating.
But please continue trying and do not be disheartened if he spits out.
Hope the query is answered.
Thanks
