Quick ? - If you use bottled water for your baby to drink do you boil it?

I am talking about bottles of Poland Spring, not baby water.

Do you boil it? What age is your DC if that matters to you?

Thanks

I want to mix some juice with water for DD, but I used to always boil the water.

I use Poland Springs water and do not boil it. That is the reason I use it!

We aren't giving baby juice yet but would just use the water unboiled

We never boiled water before hand.

ETA: We only used bottled water when we were out. If I was using the bottled water at home on a regular basis then I would because our ped told us to avoid using the water cooler stuff.

I boiled tap water until recently. Now, depending on where we are I will give him bottled water as well - he still gets more boiled water but I give him bottled water alot too - he drinks it right out of the bottle so it is easy if we are out somewhere and i don't have a sippy. He is 21 months.

I generally only use bottled water so when i first started giving DS water i would boil the bottled water but, i had a very strange problem - i actually posted about it and called the companies. A black film was being left behind staining my pots. they said it was minerals but it freaked me out so from then on i only boil tap. HTH!

I wouldn't use bottled water.... all of those bottles have BPA and the water sits in them for months.....

We used filtered tap water... never bothered boiling it.
