HELP! How do I get my twins to drink more water? Especially my boy twin. My sitter even tried it mixed with a little apple juice and they did not want it. Im worried because there poop is very solid and they only do a little bit at a time. Like every diaper change. I called doctor about it yesterday, they just said now that they are off formula they should start drinking more water. But I've been trying with them for months now. I never had this problem with my older son, he lives water

I put water in my sons milk, I put 3oz of milk in his bottle & 5oz of water.. Every time he wants a bottle🙃

I got my son off formula when he was 1yr & switched to whole milk, started putting water in his milk right away💕 I find that it's easier doing that cause my son won't drink watered down juice either 😬 @ladyfreyja

We don’t have anything in our house aside from water or milk. So she’s got no other options. When we bring her over to sitter’s we strictly tell them, only give water.
Our daughter will occasionaly have other drinks when we are out and about. For the most part, she prefers water.
Consistency and limiting their options works wonders!

We only did milk with breakfast and then after dinner. So all day long the only option they had was water. Try a few different kind of cups.

Yeah that's the other problem I'm having. They don't really want to use sippy cups, especially my boy twin. I will put the cups on his high chair tray and the tosses them right off constantly

Fruit and water didn't help my son. The doctor said to give him a half cap of Miralax a day. That did the trick.

Get new fun cups. Leave them out. They will come around. Also, try fruit to help with poop.

1 cup of juice isn’t the end of he world just make sure it’s decent juice not fruitopia it something

Make water the only option. If they know there is juice or something else they will want juice.

@gianasmom @divinely_favored that's why I never started juice with my first son
