Probably! We've bought her some baby juice which is for 6 months up and we water it down every now and then. I asked my health visitor and she said it was okay!

It doesn't matter if you water it down any trace of juice at all at bedtime is very bad for the teeth or potential teeth waiting to come through. Believe me my mother is a dentist and she has seen loads of parents make this same mistake and their poor child have to pay for it when they have bottle rot.

That could be it AMHHEALEY

My son's doctor said we can't give him any juice in till 9 months.

Maybe he's just thirsty rather than hungry? Just fancies a drink. My little lady does the same with some water she's fussy but doesn't want milk give her some water, happy and will sleep!

It's baby juice and we water it down to the point it's mostly water anyways.

My question was why would he want it not the bad issues with juice before bed.

Definitely do not give juice to bed. That can cause a lot of dental issues. Also juice should never be given it a bottle only a cup.
