The acid in that could be a little harsh on the tum tum....you could try diluting it with water or give just plain Apple Juice

I would not give a baby under a year old any juice. Juice is nearly sugar and water. Formula or breastmilk is better for fluids. Water and juice is not necessary. I also agree that orange juice is too acidic.

Orange juice is not recommended for a baby of that age it is to acidic. I would wait until 12 months of age. If you look in your supermarket there are baby juices that are available from 6 months of age... Hope this helps~

No. Citrus fruits are hard for a baby to digest for the first year of life.
Try apple, pear or even white grape. Make sure to dilute the juice 10% juice to 90% water. Otherwise your baby will be filling up on "empty" calories and they won't be as hungry for a substantial meal :)

I would wait a few more months and even then water it down a little bit. OJ has lots of acid in it.

No. It's too acidic for his little tummy. Stick with apple, pear, and grape.
