Do you.....

Give your baby cooled boiled water? We are giving Phoebe water as she is a little consipated (on the advice of our GP) but someone told me that the doctor had given us very old fashioned advice and now im doubting myself! x

    theres no reason not to, its good to get baby used to drinking water as many dont like it when it come to weaning! we started DS on a few oz of water at about 8 weeks, and will prob do the same this time round x

    We give a few sips of boiled water each day as since we started formula she gets a bit constipated. It's the only remedy I've ever heard for constipation, so I'm happy to do it.
