Do you water down your lo's juice?

kada626 · August 2009

I usually do 25% water/ 75% juice when I give my dd juice to drink when we are at home(most of the time).

If we are somewhere & someone offers her a juice box, I will let her have that too though.

What do you do?

With apple juice only. i give her 2/3s a cup of apple juice and 1/3 cup water. The only reason i still water that one down is it gives her diarrhea. Everything else she can drink just fine

DS has GI issues, so he is not supposed to have juice.

He gets gatorade as his juice. he gets 2 oz gatorade and 8 oz of water.

She rarely gets it, but I usually water it down 75% water, 25% juice.

I do about half and half, but she only gets it a few times a week. She prefers water actually.

We dont' water her juice down anymore, but we do limit how many cups of juice she can have each day (no more than 2).

DD really only gets "jui" when she's with a friend who has it. Otherwise, she is happy with water.

I was anti juice but everyone kept giving it to her so I gave in. DH probably makes it 50/50. I make it like 5% juice 95% water. I am the mean one.

Since DD has been drinking juice it's always been watered down. ?Most of the time 50/50. ?Now, I purchase Aqua Juice by Welch's. ?It's 48% water and the rest is juice. ?I don't have to take the extra time to add the water and DD still gets her juice. ?No more than twice a day, though.

80% water - 20% juice when I give it to her at home. If we're out, it's a treat, and she gets to drink it straight.

DD gets 75% water and 25% apple juice. I do give it to her everyday. Rarely does she get a juice box.

She only gets juice as a special treat or if we're having a picnic and I need to pack a drink for her. I give her Motts for Tots so it's approx 50% juice and 50% water.

DD refuses to drink straight water, so we always water down her juice since it's all she'll drink. i try to do 25% juice, 75% water, though sometimes it's half and half.

We cheat and use the Motts for Tots. Its already watered down! Plus, both DH and I like to drink it because its not as strong as regular juice.

he rarely gets it... when he does - it's usually at a party in a juice box. If he's really congested and we are avoiding milk and i give him apple juice- i do water it down a bit... probably 25% water.

We do 50/50 juice and water, but I use Healthy Harvest Juice since there are veggies in it too. They only get it once a day (one sippy apiece, so it's about 4.5 oz a day) and not everyday. Since summer started, they've been getting their two sippys of milk in the morning and water for the rest of the day.

Olivia had juice for the first time at a school function last weekend (to my knowledge, at least!). It was watered down but I don't know how much. She's fine with milk and water. although she did like that apple juice!

Yup, we do 75% water and 25% juice.
