My 5 month old started on solids about a month ago and going very well. About 2 or 3 feeds a day and we give him water to drink with and after the feed. But how much water do they need at this age and as they get older? People say it is good he is drinking anything as it is hard to get babies to drink water. He drinks about 1/2 to 1 ounce most days. We also switched to formula just prior to that, does that affect how much they should drink? I don't really want to give him any juice for quite a while as I would really like to see him get a taste for water first. He actually seems to quite like it anyway. But no one seems to know how much to try to give.
Can anyone help or offer advice.
