weird ? about hose water/playing in a baby pool...

mrszundelli

DH thinks Im crazy....might be true, but....

we got LO a baby wave pool that attatches to the hose and has sprinklers on it....DS puts everything in his mouth....should i worry about him playing in water from the hose (bacteria)?  TIA!

Over the next several years he'll put much yukkier stuff in his mouth than tap water; I wouldn't worry about it.

Are you serious?  What is the alternative? Using bottled water to fill up a baby pool?

My MIL is getting LO a pool for his birthday and she said she found on amazon a special hose that is safe for drinking water. It doesn't filter the water (which is what I thought) but it is better than using a regular gardening hose.
