I've been eating fruit and haven't had a problem. However, I try to stay away from fruits that are very acidic. It makes my sleeve unhappy.

I have eaten oranges recently, but I can't eat more than half an orange at a time. The acid doesn't bother me now, thank goodness. It really bothered me for the first few months if I tried to drink orange juice.

I ate grapefruit starting at around 4 months. I craved it--and still do! I still eat citrus almost every day--now I can eat 1/2 an orange, 1/2 a grapefruit (slowly, over about an hour!), or 1/2 c. of melon pretty comfortably.

I definitely recommend eating the fruit as opposed to drinking the juice--there's Fiber in the fruit that you miss out on with just the juice, and juice by itself seems to make my sleeve (maybe not everyone's!) unhappy--maybe too much sugar? I don't know. I don't add sugar or sweetener when I eat fruit, I just enjoy it plain. My husband's been getting more fruit, too, since I usually cut up an orange or something and offer him slices, which he can't seem to resist. :-) Sneaky me.

Oranges may be a bad idea if you already have an acid reflux. But maybe you could try other fruits? I'm a watermelon addict now -- I have atleast one slice a day!! :)

I like to take some Odalla Orange juice and dilute it with water and it is so delicious! ;)
