Is juice OK?
Don't give juice to your baby until after age 1. Juice isn't a necessary part of a baby's diet, and it's not as valuable as whole fruit. Too much juice might contribute to weight problems and diarrhea. Sipping juice throughout the day can lead to tooth decay.
If you offer juice to your baby, make sure it's 100% fruit juice and limit it to 4 ounces a day.
