Dirty water
So I needed some ice cold water today because it was so hot and I’ve been dealing with awful morning sickness. Me and my friend were going out walking with our babies. We do it all the time.
She told me she had some iced water so I agreed. When I went to drink it, it tasted like there was dirt in it. It didn’t taste like bottled water should. So I’m thinking she filled a water bottle with tap water and had it in the fridge.
I don’t normally complain but, not too long ago she fed her 1.5 Month Old bottled water. No formula. It wasn’t even infant water. I’m worried she fed her baby tap water.
I know infants can’t drink water. They have the natural sucking habit so they’ll suckle on anything.
I don’t tell people how to parent because I hate when someone tries to tell me how to raise my child. But I really don’t like how she’s feeding her infant tap water.
Would a pediatrician be able to tell? If the baby was losing weight or not gaining. Or maybe in the physical appearance of the baby?
I know she loves her baby. But infants can die from drinking water. And I know dirty tap water can’t be good for anyone.
Don’t tell me to mind my own business. I’m a mom. I worry. Any mom would worry.
