Hi guys my baby is about 12 weeks old. A lot of people asking me to give him boiled water in between feeds but midwife said there’s no nutritional value in water so there’s no point. What do you guys think ? Xxx

Not that young. There's no point unless it's for a reason like persistant constipation. And if you give them too much it can mess with their sodium levels which they can't regulate by themselves yet and it can make them really sick.

I personally wouldn't. Not when he's that young. I agree with @mamagunn.no.1 unless he is constipated don't just yet. Xx

Why is everyone wanting you to give your baby water? I gave mine little sips of cooled boiled water to help with constipation. But otherwise, they don't need it until their starting to wean.

Personally I wouldn't but I did give my LB some when he was constipated as it helped for that. he will get all his needs meet by his milk. Xx

I didn’t bother with water until she was on solids. I BLW so would put her food out with some water from around 6 months old xx
