Bompkins's food diary...


I've typed up some of Bompkins's food diary. Basically, I let him eat as much or as little as he wants and don't force him to eat anything he doesn't like. He is not a picky eater at all and he usually eats a ton. On top of this, I give him diluted apple juice and breastfeed him 2-3 times a day. I like to try to give him a protein, a grain, and fruit or veg at every meal. Certain grains like millet, buckwheat, and quinoa, are actually seeds, so they have a lot of protein & amino acids in them already.
