When can I stop boiling water and cooling it for DD? And just give her tap water?

Can't find it anywhere and getting a bit bored of boiling and cooling (particularly if I don't actually need to do it any more!)

What age can I stop it and just give her filtered tap water like I drink?

I stopped at 6 months (apart from on holidays when I still give him bottled water just in case)

From 6 months tap water is fine, apart from when abroad

6 months (still do it abroad)

also watch the salt content of bottle water - often too high

I gave up all the sterilising at 6 months too. By that age she was eating things off the floor and it all seemed a bit pointless.

Thanks - I thought I was being a bit over the top but wanted to be sure. She's nearly 8mths!!!

Right. Tap water it is at lunchtime! Woo hooooooooo!
