Hey mummy, don't be too worried! Before 1 year old, solids are mainly just for fun while the main source of nutrients should still be coming from milk :) It's totally okay if your child doesn't want to have solids yet, it could simply be because he's not ready yet - some ways to tell whether he's ready would be that he sits upright unsupported and shows interests in your food (eg. smacking his lips, fussing to have a bite etc). You can ease into the various foods, and prepare them however you want (traditional weaning or BLW) - but don't get discouraged if he doesn't want to eat, it takes time but they are smart so they won't starve themselves ;)
