Yes it can and will. You can dilute it with water to keep it from being so strong, if they drink alot.

Yes, too much fruit juice will definitely cause diarrhea, especially apple juice. Fruit juice also contains a lot of sugar, and consuming too much might make the child full, causing them not to eat the proper foods at meals. We usually tell moms to try to give toddlers water in between meals, or at least water-down the juice.

better consult a doctor before giving juice to your baby
