Introducing tea and fruit juice for the first time.

oh yes and i give my LB rooibos ( the purity one with strawberry in one bottle a day ) I measure out the water dunk the bag about 8-10 times ( dont want it too strong ) and then when ready to serve add the formula - hope i was some help

Hay there - well I started offering rooibos when he was about 2 and a half months as he had trouble with his tummy - the tea worked wonders ( tried to avoid the sugar water - only used it in dire situations ( it can cause tooth decay even before the teeth come out ). The trouble I had with him though at aroun 3.5 months was he refused water, tea and we had a very hot feb - started to worry a bit - paed suggested the fruit juice watered down - ( needless to say my little one refused it and still does lol ) the water MUST be boiled - i would buy the purity in the little box( like the liqui-fruit ) it is already mixed with water then you just add it to the cooled boiled water eg work with 60ml's give about 30ml's juice ( already mixed with water ) to about 30ml's cooled boiled water -it will give the water a taste but wont be too sweet

Sorry can't help. We were told to only give at 6 months as they really only need it from then but all paeds are different.

Until 6 months I would use boiled water and water it down quite alot. I would also offer it after a milk feed.

Dylan only drinks water. I know shame poor kid but he loves it and juice is super high in sugar.

Is your lo constipated. That would expain your paed wanting you to add sugar which helps.

We saw the paed yesterday and he said that I can start giving LO rooibos tea with a little brown sugar and NAN and watered down fruit juice. Now my question is how watered down and does the water need to be pre boiled? Also what time of day should I give this to her and won't it make her want fewer formula feeds? A bit lost here.
