So dd is 7mo now, she doesn't eats breakfast, lunch (which is only meal she really does eat anything substantial at) and dinner isn't really anything special I was just giving her finger foods when we eat but they get chewed on and then thrown on the floor or shoved in her eye

She still has same amount of milk as before really? Maybe few oz less.

Should I be ok to introduce meats? What's good? She doesn't really like lumpy stuff but she does like finger foods or smoother foods either purée or yogurt etc. Can she have fish fingers?

Lastly is it good to give fruit/veg at every meal? At brekkie she only been having cereal like weetabix or toast but she does have at lunch and dinner finger foods.

can someone actually just come round and instruct me as I actually am a bit rubbish at this

I'm afraid I can't come round as I'm rubbish too! DS is 6.5 months so we've been having a go for 2 weeks. He's had LOADS of stuff presented to him (rice cakes with hummus, sweet potato, watermelon, weetabix with strawberries so far today) but as yet all we have to show for it is a very stained carpet. He quite liked gumming crumpets but I'm not convinced any actually goes down. Some days the ONLY thing he doesn't put in his mouth is food!!
I think they can have anything except honey so meat should be fine. DS is going to throw some fish pie on the floor at tea time tonight!
Ds still has the same amount of milk as before. Hv said to dramatically reduce his milk but it seems a bitHmm. I've been giving fruit and/or veg at every meal.
