BLW moms pls help

My daughter is 13 months old. I am Feeding dalia,dal and vegetable every evening while morning in the daycare she has some pasta, steamed veg or whatever. The problem is she is refusing to eat anything at home.

i encouraged self feeding from 4-5 months but only for Cheerios, fruits. She eats those. I didn't know how to encourage self feeding for rice that we usually eat so that I used to feed her. Before she used to eat but slowly she started to fuss.

It started about a month and half ago and I started putting videos to divert her. Now it haas come to a point that she cries if I turn it off. I know this is all not good. Hence I started giving her pieces to pick up.

Apple tea cake, buttered noodles, buttered carrot sticks. She just uses windshield viper motion and throws everything down.

When she comes from daycare, my husband feeds her dinner at 6:30. Then after that she takes about 2 bottles (on demand) before she hits the bed. Now I want to change this pattern. I come at 8pm. If my husband feeds her milk at 6:30, and all of us have dinner at 9...will that work? Out of 3 dinners, she did well in 2. Maybe 1 or 2 bites self feed and if we feed her sitting as family she eats. Still this is less than what she eats if she watches videos and eats. But that's getting such a pain in the ***. I never wanted that in the first place.

My my main question is - how many months will it take for her to get past just couple of bites self feeding. She eats so less this way. If dinner is at 9 then a bottle at 6:30 and a bottle after dinner...is that ok? She started drinking more milk after hitting a year.

Ive looked up blw but clearly all resources are for babies at 6 months.
