Just watched a super informative video on why infants cannot have plain water and how it can be deadly. I wish we could share videos on here! #DoNotGiveYourBabyWater 😩

Wic gave me a cup and told me to give my daughter a small amount to get her used to trying a cup.. Although she is only breast fed and will not take pacifiers bottles or even toys .. she hates putting things in her mouth that's not my breast. She is a bit strange.. I do not give her a lot sip then try later ..

That's so crazy they would do that, I would've said no thank you lol. At 5 months she can't have the water nor does she need to be practicing using a cup lol. Sometimes I wonder about people, you'd think they of all people they would know that 🤦‍♀️

So I don’t wanna sound dumb, but I am a new mom and have never been told not to give my baby water. I wouldn’t right now but I thought it was ok to give her water around 6 months. Can you just explain to me why not to give them water? Just want to be informed since no one has said anything to me.

They say before 6 months babies shouldn't have any water and after that it should be limited. (Mine I limited until he was weaned off of milk.) They can get over hydrated (I don't remember the actual term for it). If baby is in need of hydration only sips should be given. Babies are super sensitive and get their water from the breast milk or bottles they get throughout the day.

@addy her excuse was to help him poop lol I was like yeah okay. He wasn't constipated not had problems. It's like she'd give me juice to give to him, which nope never did lol until like 2. I don't have a good relationship with her as you can tell 😂

This is probably horrible of me since I’m pregnant with #4 but what age is it okay to start to give water ?

At 6 months they can have VERY limited amounts(less than 2 oz) you shouldn't give a sippy cup of water until about a year!

Trigger warning

What is your opinion on the Philando Castile shooting? I just saw a recording of his 4 year old telling the mom not to scream so she doesn't get shot. That video broke my heart. I haven't read into the whole thing but do you think the cop was in the right?

The whole thing is just a mess honestly. He should have been tried separately for each charge.
I cry every time I read about this... just standing there not knowing what was going on.
Update: I know it's not really justice or anything but i read yesterday (Tuesday) the family got
