My eight months old eats very less solids. I am scared if he is not eating well.

Hi My eight months old now weighs 8.3 kg. Birth weight is 2.5 kg. I am an exclusively pumping mom due to latching issues and mastitis in the beginning.

My baby drinks around 800 to 900 ml breast milk a day. Currently he is having breakfast, lunch and evening snack. For breakfast he would have two to three tablespoons cereal (I make more for him but he never ate more than three tablespoons), in lunch he will have two tablespoons or less veg puree and one to two TEA spoon yoghurt with applesauce or any fruit puree. I offer him various finger food in lunch but not much goes in. He just chops them and spits them out. He never eats dinner well. Always everything ends up on floor. Barely eats anything at this time.

He never let me feed him. I always give puree to his hand in a pre loaded spoons and he eats himself. He is a very happy baby and reaching his milestones well. But I am very unhappy with the fact that he didn't take to solids well, not even okay I believe. Is anyone in the same boat like me?
