16 months and oj
posted 20th Nov
when is it okay to have your LO drink orange juice
my son is 16 months.
he has a little cold so i thought drinking some might help him get better faster with all that vitamin c
but everyone told me it hurts there tummys and gives them diaper rash.
advice?

I give my daughter orange juice once in a great while. It's only a small couple sips of orange julius because she can't drink juice or eat fruit. .

I gave Aiden OJ at like 8 months old. Before a year I would dilute it because it gave him diaper rashes though.

I give my 18 month old orange juice & he does just fine.
we used to water it down when we gave it to him, now he drinks it straight

I don't give my 20 month old oj. Seems to acidic to me. But I do let him eat oranges

My son gets it every once in a while. I've been cutting out a lot of my son's juice intake, though. Water & milk are his prime beverages.

I don't really know about giving him orange juice. My 17 month old has never had juice. She just eats enough fruit. She only drinks water and milk. I don't know if it would give her a tummy ache but it seems like it may be a little too acidic. Maybe water it down?

yeah thats what i was thinking.
My son only drinks milk and water all through out the day and sometimes he'll have a cup of juice but its not all the time.

I have yet to give my 16month old OJ. I do give him oranges though. I think the OJ would be too acidic for his tummy. A little bit or a few sips wouldn't hurt though.
