Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic'
It is too early to give fruit juice to a 4 months old baby.
Pomegrenate juice is safe but it should be prepared in a sterile way
Otherwise it may lead to infective diarrhea.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
