Letting your 9 month old daughter drink water is perfectly fine! I started my son drinking water when he started on solid foods (at 6 months). Whenever he ate food, he would get a sippy cup with water. It was a great way to teach him that water is the best thing to drink when you are thirsty. Always let your daughter nurse as much as she would like. And giving her a cup of water to help quench her thirst in the heat is great too! -- Judy Thanks for visiting my blog.

I was actually saying that mom needed to drink more water, not the baby. Babies don't need anything but breastmilk (especially for the first 6 months, but even after many don't get supplemental liquids). Sorry for the confusion. -- Judy Thanks for your comment.
