Water??

When is it safe to give our LO'S water?? My son is 5mos1week

Re: Water??

  • My doctor said i could after 6 months but that it wasn't necessery even then.

    I give dd a few spoons every once in a while she loves it
  • Talk to your doctor because it's different for some babies. My doctor said it was fine at 4 monthes because my daughter had already double her birth weight. It's not necessary yet though.

  • Doctor said we could offer it between feedings if she seemed thirsty where she is fully transitioned to also eating solids 3 times a day
  • 6 months is when you can start giving a little water or juice. I bought juice and give her an ounce at a time every few days. I've not tried water yet. I just give her formula and solids.
