Hi I am not sure if this is exactly the right category for this post but I will still write.
We have always drunk bottled water. I have always bought the massive bottles for myself and my DD has always had Shaun the Sheep Iceni water (obsessed with him, still is at 11yrs). It has always been easier as she was forever knocking over cups too.
About 3 months ago I switched to buying little bottles like the ones she drinks, because I found I was actually drinking more water (which for health reasons was much better for me). They were also useful for taking to work for lunch, at the gym etc.
I read a while back that due to some of these plastic bottles are made (is is that bpa?), that you should only use them once then throw away, i.e. do not refill? DD drinks one, chucks away then drinks another. I have re filled mine a few times when I have not been to Tesco to get some more. My DD has not suffered any ill health other than the usual colds, sniffles, sore throats but it does make me wonder if her drinking out of the bottles every night here has had some affect which has not reared its head yet? She still drinks water out of a cup at school, grandparents, when we out etc. Am I being really paranoid and over worrying?
I also read an article recently about women losing their sex drive by drinking straight from water bottles .. again at the time I was going through a very low time due to splitting up with XP, loss of appetite, a few family concerns and my sex drive was dwindling anyway, so don't want to place too much emphasis on drinking out of the water bottles being the cause?
I just don't know if I am over thinking/over worrying.
