My 3 months old nephew
My father keeps giving my brother's 3 month old son a few drops of fruit juice whenever he's himself eating a fruit. I know the baby is only supposed to get breast milk until 6 months old but my father says nothing will happen. I would like to know if there are any consequences of the same. Thanks.

Juice isn’t appropriate for babies under 1year of age. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). While a fruity drink might seem wholesome, fruit juices are often loaded with sugar. Which can lead to
. Diarrhoea
. Abdominal pain
. Excessive weight gain
Next Steps
When serving fruit juice to children.
below 12 months: No juice
1 to 3 year olds: No more than 4 ounces a day (that's a little more than half of a standard-sized juice box).
4 to 5 year olds: No more than 4 to 6 ounces a day.
