Juice?

DS is 9 months old, been doing BLW from 6 months which goes well, he seems to enjoy it (and so do we). We give him water with his meals which he likes (he does like being a 'fountain' as much as he likes swallowing the water.. :o). I'm breastfeeding him as well, and he still has quite a few feeds a day (every 4-5 hours I'd say).

-I was wondering when can/do you start giving them juice or squash? What type?
-Do you give it with meals or randomly or is it just personal preference?
-How much do you need to dilute it?
-At what point do you no longer need to dilute it?

I didnt give juice till over 1 year. Pure fruit juice watered down with tap water is fine (you dont need to use special 'baby' juice). I still add water to juice and my two are aged 5 and 8 (makes the juice last longer and is better for their teeth)
