How much water do you give?

Kiera has just started to really enjoy water from her sippy cup-probably because of how hot it is.

I think she's drinking about 2-3 ounces a day right now. Does that seem like a lot, a little? Is there such a thing as too much?

She doesn't get any juice and drinks about 24 ounces of formula a day, plus her three meals.

I forgot to mention that she's 8 months old.

Thanks!

I think that sounds fine. My ped. told me to give Nick about that much water in a sippy cup each day too...but he won't drink it!

I think that's fine...James wont drink the juice...but he loves water.

Michael does NOT drink juice - I make a 4oz bottle or sippy cup or water and let him sip it throughout the day - he has MAYBE 2oz, I don't force it, but I have to think they do get thirsty right?

My son is 6 months old and i try to give him a few ounces throughout the day. Especially if we are out in the warm weather. He takes maybe 2-3 ounces a day.
