water?
When did you start your DC on water regularly? How did you introduce it? TIA

Re: water?
With  #1 I started around 8 months? During meals, I would just put a sippy with water on the high chair and eventually she caught on.
#2 is 4 months old and I just gave her water this past Sunday. We were outside all day at a party and it was HOT and she was so cranky, so after her formula, I filled the bottle up with water and she drank a little.
I probably won't reintroduce it again until she's around 8 months like the first time.

Re: water?
DS only started drinking water regularly very recently.... he's 4yo....
He's on the thin side, so he is fine drinking juice or milk most of the time.

Matthew is 15 months old and has been drinking water since 12 months. He's had it a litte before he turned 1 but now he's drinking it more. He likes it and gets excited when he sees the sippy cup with the water...

Re: water?
My SIL continuously told me to give DD water - but I waited to discuss it with her pediatrician first. Since she gets formula - she is getting plenty of water and does not need any more than what she is getting from there (my SIL breastfed 4 children and never dealt with formula)

Re: water?
Around 6 months is when DD's ped. said we can give it to her. she's not that fond of it but i try to give it to her when she is due for a bottle so she drinks some.
I try giving it to her in a sippy but she doesnt quite get the sippy cup yet. when she tries to drink out out of it it just dribbles down her face.

Re: water?
Ava started drinking it regularly at a couple of months old. She's a water fanatic. She prefers water over anything else.

Re: water?
We started at about 8 months. She loves water. She'd drink a whole big bottle if I let her. I don't let her though b/c it would fill her up too much and then she wouldn't eat.
