My baby is 7 weeks old and I was told if you mix an ounce of cold tap water with boiled to cool down a bottle this is fine, I did it then googled it after giving it her and I have seen awful things online about baby’s drinking tap water? Can someone help me? Will she be okay or shall I take her to get checked.

Personally I wouldn't be adding tap water to a bottle for a 7 week old if you're on the UK.

You can give tap water from 6 months, when their immune system has improved but it's not recommended before then.

This leaflet from WHO has the latest information on preparing formula Flowers
