At this age,give 2 solid meals,the second one just before your bedtime,that will help him sleep longer.
Give 4 milk feeds including one top formula feed,using a spoon and katori and rest breastfeeds.
You can give whatever you prepare at home including dal,Dalia,mashed potato and Banana,porridge,mashed vegetables etc in addition to cerelac.
Be sure to give 5-6 spoons of water after every solid meal.
