[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fruit juice is sooooo high in glucose (SUGAR) that it is not healthy at all for a baby.  You could give the baby diabetes.  DO NOT FEED A BABY JUICE!!!!  At 5.5 months, maybe start a few ounces of water each day, and definitely NO JUICE![/quote]

DS is 13 months and has never had juice, so I'm not a juice person.  However, this is a little over the top.  When I do introduce juice to him, I will be juicing the fruit and veggies myself, like OP.  I think you can agree that this is far healthier and has less sugar than store bought juice.  That said, OP, just put a few ounces of water in the sippy cup.  It isn't going to replace BM or purees, its just an introduction. [/quote]

Thank you. I will keep juice away until he is older. Than, I will give him homemade juice a couple times a week. I will put water in his sippy cup. I think my ped. said something about [b]him getting water on the brain if he consumes too much.[/b] [/quote]
Sorry, but are you currently juicing fermented grain?!? What on earth is THAT supposed to mean?[/quote]

My pediatrician said babies can very easily consume too much water and have water on the brain. That is fatal. It is possible for every human. How the hell do you not know this?[/quote]
