  That should be fine. I use tap water filtered through a brita water filter.

  Same here. We used the bottled water for a while but realized we could save SO much more with our Brita.

  We are using ready to feed formula now, but when I used powder we used water from the Brita.

  I'd use the filtered fridge water.

  Currently, we use a Brita pitcher and keep it on the counter.

  we use regular water filtered through the brita and also keep the pitcher on the counter at room temp.

  We just use tap water.  Unless there is something questionable about your water supply, or you have an older home with old pipes, there's nothing wrong with what comes from your sink or fridge.

  I filter, then boil the water and store it in a separate pitcher in the fridge.

  My pedi said the water should be boiled until DD has had at least 2 rounds of shots (3 mo). She made it a point to tell me that filtered or bottled water is not an appropriate substitute for boiled water. It may be overkill, but it makes me feel better to boil it.

  Both our pediatrician and the L&D staff said the city water was just fine from the tap but if we had a well it would have to be boiled.
