Drinking water
Hey ladies, Just wondering with the weather looking like it's improving, do I have to offer James water? I know cooled boiled water is used to help constipation. But wasn't sure about it just being a drink? James' wee can smell quite strong at times, and obviously more fluids would help. Otherwise he takes 4-5oz milk 3-5 hourly. Thanks mummies. ) xx mithical and James 8 weeks 4 days.

As i had my lo in the summer, i used to keep a bottle a day just for drinking water and used to offer it regularly mainly in the middle of two feeds. Sometimes he wouldnt be bothered, but other times he would drink quite alot.

Emilia has a split feed at 5 and 6:15 to help her settle for bed and the drink of water doesnt seem to interfere with them. She usually takes about 1oz of water
