How much water does your baby drink??

Answer

He typically drinks about 8 oz of water a day. He enjoys it with his meals, plus I leave a sippy cup with water in his playroom, which he likes to pick up and drink during the day. Last week he was sick with a stomach bug so he didn’t want regular water and he became dehydrated so I put some apple juice in his water and he gulped it up. If you’re worried your baby needs more water you can try adding it to his milk or giving some water with juice in it. When my son is healthy I usually give him water with pomegranate juice in it with his breakfast and it keeps him regular.

Answer

We offer water all day. It ends up being about 3 6oz cups each day and only 2 cups of milk because he also eats yogurt and cheese.

Answer

Maybe cause it’s so much milk. Her doctor said no more than 16oz of milk a day. Actually any dairy period. Too much milk messes with iron deficiency. I was worried cause my daughter is on a milk strike lately. She cut way back. And she said less is better than more. She said 3 servings of milk. And a yogurt cup counts as 1. A cheese stick counts as one. So even one 8oz of milk a day is ok if they’re getting diary elsewhere. Maybe that’s why they aren’t drinking much water then 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

I read that more than 16oz of milk a day can lead to iron deficiency, so my son only gets water at lunch and snack time and he drinks about 4oz each time.

Answer

My daughter loves water she drinks about a cup a day with meals I try to not fill her up with pure water though she still has 2 bottles of milk and 3 meals and snacks in between

Answer

My baby girl basically has just water. During meals she’ll get milk every now and again, but I give her water in a bottle and she just gets it when she wants it throughout the day. She also gets my bottles of water and brings them to me to drink lol.
