Water with meals
How much water are you giving lo with their meals? I try to hold the water back for a bit as I want lo to have some food first but when she has the water, she only wants water and seems to forget about the food. I don’t want her getting full off water but I also don’t want to stop her having water as I know it’ll help with constipation (sometimes she gets gassy in the night) . Any tips please?
For context: lo with 9 months and EBF so only has water with meals at the moment.

Ooo I have this exact cup. I just get a bit scared as online it says to not give too much, I don’t know how much ‘too much’ is haha
Ah I really don’t know! I just trust that she knows what she needs and let her direct it herself. I think if it’s filling her up too much and she’s not having enough milk that’s one thing but just having it around for meals is maybe okay? I’m not sure. Just going off of my own experiences xx
