[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]mI'm really curious, what's wrong with flouride? It's good for their teeth. Bottled water is terrible for the environment. Can you get one of those big coolers with the jugs? Just tell the nanny the water is for the baby. She probably doesn't realize it. [/quote] Some people think that fluoride is linked to myriad health problems. I'm not one of those people as I've done no research on it. I do remember hearing that if a baby drinks too much fluoridated tap water, it can lead to spots on their teeth. If that is the case, I would rather hold off on giving DD tap water until she is a little older. Plus, I hear that topical fluoride, i.e., toothpaste, is much better for our teeth than ingesting it while being less likely to cause health problems (if at all) because you spit it out. At 18 months, she's still too young for regular toothpaste so that will have to wait, too. And you're right, nanny had no idea the water was for DD! [/quote]
