It's okay. At this age, children find more interest in exploring their surroundings, than eating. However, you have to add complimentary feeds now. If he only breastfeeds, he will develop iron deficiency. You can give him mashed potatoes, khichdi, mashed veggies, chicken stew, etc. if he doesn't like banana. Make foods interesting by adding little spices and salt. Don't give bland food. Can give Cerelac/ NAN 2/ dexolac 2, etc. at this age for boosting. You have to take patience in feeding him and it will take time
