If you are only breastfeeding your child, it does not normally need any additional drinks. When you start complementary feeding, the food becomes firmer and contains less liquid. You can therefore offer additional fluids. From the 10th month, your child will need regular fluids in the form of drinks, preferably drinking water.
We recommend offering drinks in suitable cups and helping to hold the cup if necessary. Normally, children between 9 and 12 months can drink from a cup on their own. If children drink drinks with sugar from a bottle, this can lead to tooth decay. You should therefore avoid this.
