Water for 6m+

Are you giving your baby water straight from the tap?
It doesn’t sit right with me to give baby water straight from the tap as I don’t even drink tap water myself, I only drink bottled.
To me, although safe to drink tap water just seems a bit much to give a baby. Am I still okay to give cool boiled water? Might even buy a filter jug.
Thanks!

I used to boil it and then let it cool down and put it in a thermos. Sometimes I used to put fennel seeds while boiling it and sieve it out

I guess it depends on where you live, in Yorkshire our water is beautiful so I just gave straight from the tap!
