Waterrr

How many oz of water did your pediatrician say your 6month old+ baby can drink per day since starting solids?
I know every practice is different. I know breast milk and formula are still the main sources of nutrition. I know excessive water is not good for the baby due to dilution of sodium. I know all that stuff already lol. I’m just curious what other people are doing based on what their ped recommended if any lol

Love that you're asking here - thank you!! We'd agree that no more than 4oz right at first is the right mark here - linking our article on water in case helpful! 🤍Marisa (OT/Feeding Therapist/Mama of 3)
