Re: Water - how old?

DD didn't get water until she started with a sippy regularly, which was when she was 10 months I think. Don't know how we compare to others, but our ped said there was no reason to start it before then for DD.

Re: Water - how old?

I didn't give it until 6 months when I started solids. It's known to help with constipation so in the beginning, I would give DD an ounce or 2. We also gave it in the middle of the night a couple of times when DD woke up & we were trying to stop night feedings.
