A member asked:
How much water can an 8 month old drink safely/daily without worrying about water intoxication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Less than 4 ounces.: I would not recommend no more than 2-4 oz of water per day for an infant that age. You would not need to worry about intoxication with volumes that small.
