To be worried about my little one drinking a lot?

My little one is 15 months, and in the last few weeks have been drinking a lot more, she still has 3 milks overnight then 5 bottles of water during the day. Her nappies are also leaking a lot more. When I googled it, it said diabetes, is that something I need to worry about?

I swapped bottles for cups and that stopped my little boy drinking so much, bottles are easy for them to get a lot of liquid in a short amount of time. You can get checked for diabetes as well as it can be a sign. But it may just be that it's easy. Xx

Is it in a baby bottle?

It may be nothing but have a chat with your local doctor or nurse..some children tend to drink water as a pacifier

She's probably just thirsty as it's been so bloody hot.

I would get that checked out. It seems a shocking amount of fluid for a baby. Is she eating normally?
