tap water or cooled boiled water

[muslimah28]

i read on here the other day about giving tap water to 6mo +. What do you do? Is it necessary to boil the water and let it cool? Asked dh who is a phamacist and he reckons its fine from the tap cos itsbeen purified.

tap water is fine as a drink from 6 months. It only need to be boiled if it used for making formula

My HV told me to boil all water DD drank until 9 months. It did seem a bit pointless when she was crawling round putting everything in her mouth. But I did it anyway.

tap water! We have the safest tap water in the world :)
