How long do they need cooled boiled water for?

[beansprout]

When is it recommended 'til?

NB looking for recommended rather than anecdotal "mine had water from a puddle at 5 months and were fine" stuff

6mths

lol beansprout just logged on to ask exactly the same question!! Dh and I were discussing this last night and he said sounds like a question for mn to me!!!

Hi Bellie! I'm guessing we both think it's around a year then?!

I think that it must be about a year but have kept going with it!! However my next question then is do I get it straight from the tap for her or is it OK to use our filter??

Bellie-that's my next question too (although I would think filtered water is probably a better option anyway?!

it says 6 months in the nosh book given to me by the hv. It says 6 months on packets of organic baby cereal too.

the govt 0-5 book says 6 months.

6 months.

Good to know I have been excessively cautious!!

So should I get him onto solid food before he starts school then?!

6 months is the answer!

Till they start drinking the bathwater

don't worry beansprout I have been ultra cautious then too!! Filtered must be better than tap water - but I guess probably not straight from the fridge!!
