Sweetened water for babies

We explain the pros and cons of giving your baby sweetened water.

  • By getting used to sugary water, your baby may develop bad habits.
  • The baby might be programmed to like sweet foods and create a risk of obesity when growing up.
  • On the other hand, sugar water is a good remedy for colic, and a small syringe of water can be given to a colicky baby in small doses.
  • In short, you can give it to the baby only from time to time and make sure that it does not become a habit.

Try propel and adding fruit to your water bc water alone won't hydrate you and actually diminishes electrolytes

On June 27th at 8:30 am my water broke while we was having a deep conversation instead of it being my water I was losing blood. It was heavy bleeding when I made it to the hospital I was only dilated to 3cm and it was no chance that my Dr was sending me home at all. I was in labor for 17+ hours and my sugar was dropping tremendously because I'm hypoglycemia and I push my healthy 10lb 5oz baby boy out at 2:48am and thankful for my support system and dr because they made sure my sugar went back up before anybody left and something happened

does anyone know of a drink that’s watery (not heavy on sugar or syrup) but that’s sweet? kinda like a mango dragonfruit refresher (with water). i know water is the best thing, but me and this growing belly are getting sick of water all the time. i was suggested tea but that also feels heavy and syrupy. i hope this makes sense to someone😩

Is anyone else crazy thirsty!? My blood sugar is normal but I’ve been drinking at least one 64 oz water bottle every day. I didn’t know that was a pregnancy symptom! I would normally struggle to drink one 24 oz!

I’m so tired of drinking just water so I brought these sugar free powder packets & at first I thought it was nasty but they’re actually good & it’s 4 or 5 favors trying different stuff because I don’t want to drink to much sugary stuff
