Hi mom, to start giving your baby juices, I would recommend you first start by giving the boiled water of the same. For instance, boil apples and give the water to your baby after cooling it to room temperature. Make this the first transition towards juice. Once your baby nears a year, you can take out fresh fruit juice at home and give it immediately. Do not give too much and do not add any sugar or any other additives, as it can lead to tooth decay. You can easily give juice of apples, grapes, oranges, sweet lime, pomegranate and such, as these are nutritious and easy to digest. Add it at lunch time to aid in proper iron absorption. http://www.bumpsnbaby.com/juices-for-infantsbaby-when-why-and-how/

PD's generally do not advice kids to be given juice until they turn one. But if you want to give juice to your baby, make sure it is freshly taken out at home. Also, do not give too much juice as it may cause tooth decay once the baby gets teeth. You can give little orange, pomegranate, apple juice. All the fruits intact which are seedless. They are easy for the baby's tummy. http://kellymom.com/nutrition/starting-solids/baby-juice/ http://homemade-baby-food-recipes.com/giving-baby-juice/

Thank you so much for your sharing the info :)

at 8 months old, you can start your baby on homemade fresh juices. some juices you can make at home are apple juice, grape juice, sweet lime juice, orange juice and such. make sure you give these in small quantities though.

In my opinion y to give juices .. if u want to give fruit juices means instead better to give her puree.. and give her coconut water it's very good in this summer..

I wouldn't give juices, water is the best. Juices has sugar in them.
