water to drink ?

How much H2O does your LO drink throughout the day (not including bottle)?  EX-  sippy cup etc.

    pretty much none....she is not into the sippy cup. She loves to fling water around but not actually drink it. Ome day soon, I hope!

    About 2-3 oz...it is given to her after she has her solids.  This past weekend, we were at the racetrack for some hours and I gave her a little extra ( I was thirsty, so I figured that she was too).

    This kid loves water!  I have to take the sippy away from her.  I think she gets close to 3 ounces a day.

    I don't measure.  I just offer the sippy cup as often as I can remember.  I also let her drink from my glass since she likes drinking water like mommy!  That definitely gets her to drink more water.  It's recommended that LO drinks some water after each meal to help with the kidney functioning now that solids is in the diet.

    He gets about 4 oz, mostly after dinner, which is the bigger meal.
