How much juice/milk/water should I give my baby each day in his sippy? If your baby starts using a sippy cup before he can drink juice or whole milk, simply give him a portion of his breast milk or formula in the sippy cup each day. Generally, water and juice are unnecessary for breastfed and bottle-fed infants in the first six months of life. After six months, if your babys thirsty between feedings, refill his sippy with water. When your baby starts drinking juice, give him no more than half a cup of juice a day, in addition to his formula or breast milk. Once your child starts drinking whole milk (at age 1), experts recommend no more than 32 ounces of milk and a half cup of juice per day. More than that and youre asking for cavities and a toddler whos too full to eat at mealtime.
