Everytime my son has juice he throws up (now age 4) so am thinking that he might have an allergy to juice!

I would say that the juice is to rich for her and yes Children can be allergic to juice

It could also be a fungus issue and when she has that much sugar from the juice, it acts up. I would stay from the acidic ones for sure. Best of luck.

thanks that's what I've been doing but does that mean she can't have popcicles? Most have citric acid in them

My doctor told me they can be as it used to set off my sons eczema and it got really bad when he had juice. Should grow out of it though. He said to try and avoid anything really citrus

thanks ladies i will def. check labels and try other juices. although it is with alot of them. capri sun, apple, the packets you put into water, sugar free kool aid. so really the only things she has been drinking the last couple of months is water, milk, flavored water, and tea. im afraid to try any because my mom gave her cranberry juice one weeked about 2 weeks ago and has the worst rash ive ever seen =(, but she got an antibotic and its so much better

My son has this problem if use apple, grape and kiwi strawberry.. No matter how much water we add.. So we just don't use those kinds in our home.. With our daughter she hasn't had any problems with any juice, but we also just don't use the one he can't have as it makes him upset.. I would speak with your doctor and ask them what they thought... Hope this helps a little..

it might be something in the juice that she can't have. is it all juices or just some. look at the labels and see if you can pin point what it is in the certain juice her body can take.
