juice?

lucyloo288

My daughter is 4.5 months and has been eating cereal since before Christmas and started solids about a week ago. Her poop has been very paste-y, and not a lot of it. My aunt says she needs some water or juice with her supper to loosen it up a bit. I Googled it and most sites said you could start juices around 5 or 6 months.. what do you ladies think? Should I try to give her some juice? Will it really help with her poop? How much should I start with?

Bentleys pedi said he could have juice when he started solids. Just do 1oz juice + 1oz water in a sippy cup for a few days. Then increase to 2oz juice + 2oz of water.

@BentleysMommy716 was Bentley about the same age?

@Steph_Due_101611 how old was she?

I have white grape juice, would that be okay? And does it have to be in a sippy cup?

I started my daughter on juice right Round then 2oz juice with 2oz water. She hated apple juice so we did pear juice.

I started him at 4months. He's only had apple but his pedi recommended apple or white grape as the first juice.
