Weaning after illness

12 month old was exclusively breastfed and I had weaned him down to 3 feeds during the day, morning, evening and one overnight. He then had a nasty stomach bug, followed by a chest infection and now a cold - totally went off all solids so had to exclusively breastfeed again. We are coming up to 2 weeks and need to get back to where we were - any tips on how to get him back on solids again?

Is he completely fine now @ThisWiseUser? You could try offering something he would like instead like some cheese cubes and diluted fruit juice?

He is much better now, finished his antibiotics for his chest and just left with a bit of a snotty nose and cough - we keep trying him on his favourites but won’t do more than a mouthful of yogurt or banana
