How can you get a child to drink water? It's about to be reeeeal hot soon and bad enough I can't get my baby to eat food I'm still putting jar food in her milk so she can get some type of food in her system she won't take water either and that's gonna be a problem with me, she's gonna definitely need the hydration this summer any tips or suggestions

@kelseys, I'll try the fruit she doesn't like juice at all I can't win with her I'm trying not to take milk away from her so that she has no other option but to drink some water but I may have to end up doing just that...since it's gotten hot she's been throwing up ALOT and she's never been a puker

make some lemonade or tea. that'll keep him/her hydrated too.

Stay away from tea, it's been known to cause iron deficiency

@marskhaos, 😱 well she definitely don't need that! She already has iron problems and we have to supplement her

It's probably cuz all the milk, too much milk can cause it too, maybe get some of the sugar free mio's and flavored water packets?

and pedialyte packets

@marskhaos, No her iron is crazy because she has alpha thalassemia and she was breastfed then since she has a dairy allergy we put her on non dairy milks like cashew and almond

@marskhaos, yes I'll definitely try some mio and pedialyte that sound really good

@mommyagain, you can try Pedialyte Popsicles because it doesn't cause her to have to drink it and it can also help with fevers or teething too. my daughter loves them!

@mommyagain, they don't really taste sweet. it just takes like fruit kind of. there isn't any sugar in it so it won't be too bad.
