Three months baby can not drink fruit juice.
Breastmilk can satisfy all the liquid, energy and its nutrients needed for the growth and development of babies before the age of 6 months, and at this time the baby’s digestive organs and excretory organs are not yet mature and functionally incomplete, the ability to digest and absorb food and metabolic wastes are still low, it is not appropriate to add other foods. So three months baby can not drink juice.
Freshly squeezed fruit juice, 100% pure fruit juice in the fructose, sucrose and other sugar content is too high, less fiber content, its nutritional value is not as good as the whole fruit.
In order to reduce the sugar intake of infants and young children, it is recommended that infants before 6 months of age do not add additional pure fruit juice or diluted fruit juice; 7 ~ 12 months of age infants are best to consume puree and small fruit particles, can be a small amount of pure fruit juice, but it should be diluted; 13 ~ 24 months of age toddlers do not drink more than 120 mL of pure fruit juice per day, and it is best to drink at mealtime or snack time.
The growth and development of babies and their complementary foods need to follow a certain pattern, but there are some individual differences, add complementary food time, type, quantity and speed should be flexible according to the baby’s specific situation, step by step.
