formula babies: tap or bottled water?

Do you use tap water or bottled water for your LO's formula?

I use bottled. Not a fan of how our water tastes chlorinated for ME so no way for my DS.

Tap, but its filtered. We have a Brita filter on our kitchen faucet.

We use Tap Water. I checked out the city's site and looked up the water information. Everything looked good and our water doesn't taste bad sooo Tap Water for us.

I don't have a problem with our tap water, but we use gallons of distilled water from the supermarket. It's less than a buck per gallon

We used to buy distilled but most of the time when she gets formula its tap.

We just switched from Gerber Pure bottled to tap water filtered by Brita. She had a sensitive tummy at first, so we stuck with bottled water and strict Similac. Now we use Brita water and she likes the Up&Up (Target) Prebiotic infant formula - only 9 of the values are not identical to Similac.

I was using tap, but I am not using bottled. So much easier then having to boil water.

Our tap water is nasty, and it upsets DD's stomach. So, bottled it is for us!

I use warm tap water. I used to use water from the filter on our fridge but it comes out cold and I got tired of filling up the bottles ahead of time so they'd sit out and get room temp. lol But I do use the water dispenser to fill the bottles if we're going out somewhere so that I have the water already in the bottles.

I'm paranoid about the water here. I remember there was an outbreak of something or another in the water when I was a kid, so I'm using bottled. BRB has their gallon of water usually on sale for about $0.89 and lasts a little over a week

we use nursery water. I'll use until we make the switch to whole milk. We have very hard water and I just feel better knowing DD is getting the extra vitamins of the nursery water.

We use filtered water.

tap. we boiled it for the first two months, and then the pedi told us we didn't have to anymore. Since two months old, it's been just plain tap water.

Public Health says to boil until babies are 4 months old, and to use hard water or spring water. We have a softener so we boil spring water.

RO or bottled...never tap. I never drink it, so why should she?
