Baby not taking water

Is anyone really struggling getting their formula fed little one to take water. I have tried so many different cups and things and she just spits it straight back out. It’s making me go insane I feel like I’m doing something wrong.

My boy was doing OK up until recently. He wouldn't drink much, maybe a few mouthfuls but he didn't dribble any. Now for the last couple weeks I don't know what it is but it just pours out down his front. He gets loads in his mouth then spits it out as he is drinking. I'm not sure if he is trying to blow into the cup. So frustrating. Actually getting worried if he's ever gonna drink normally again.

@Carly it’s a nightmare honestly I’m kind of resided myself to the fact she’s not drinking water at the moment but I’ve even tried giving her it in the same bottle as I give her the milk and it’s still just spit out and then will push away the bottle

I'm hoping it's just a weird phase they will get over

my baby drank lots of water during the summer and now we struggle to take 10 ml

My little one is the same! Won’t take any water and have tried sooo many styles of cups for a a few weeks at a time different temps but no luck! The only thing he will drink is his bath water if he has his open top cup in the bath!

@Ebony my little one will suck on her washcloth but that’s it 😂

@Vanesa god I wish. During the summer she decided she didn’t want to drink. It was a fight to get her to have formula 🤦🏼‍♀️
