I keep reading about giving water to your babies at mealtimes, but all of the reading I've done says that babies under 1 year old shouldn't be given water as all of their fluid intake should be breastmilk or formula. I always offer breast after Clara's meals and sometimes she drinks more than others, but I know she's getting as much as she needs/wants that way. Especially since at this age food/solids are more for the experience than for the nutrition and most of babies' nutrition should come from bm or formula.
