what kind of juice do you give LO

wifey26 · June 2011

now that DS is 6 months, pedi said juice is ok from time to time. what kinds of juices have you given LO? what brands (just the gerber baby kind or other brands that aren't specifically for babies...)? TIA

Water. We don't give juice unless he is constipated.

None. Juice is the debil.

Half apple juice/half water. A little each day or he gets constipated and cries when he poops.

interesting! pedi said juice is ok once in a while to help diversify diet/tastes but that it should never be used in place of milk or food. and that we shouldn't give any water b/c DS gets enough water through his other fluids and foods.

yet my girlfriends pedi said to give juice and water now (at 6 months or after). i find it so weird how different pedi's recommendations can be!!
