So I brought this up before how Xander pretty much wasn't drinking water during his meals and I was concerned about constipation (which we've been dealing with) and the advice I got was basically to not really worry about it since he's still getting plenty of fluids from breast milk and to just give him lots of high-water fruits and have his water available to him throughout the day, etc.
So anyway, we've recently started offering hemp milk at dinner because I want to get him to used to the flavor, but like the water, he's pretty much not drinking any of it. I also keep his water cup out in the play area so he always has access to it, though he rarely drinks from it. I've also been feeding him pears with practically every meal to combat the constipation we've been dealing with. He's still drinking plenty of BM, but I'm concerned about what will happen when we STOP offering bottles and I stop nursing. Will he eventually start drinking with meals because he's not getting the liquids elsewhere?? Any advice on how to make the transition smoother so he doesn't get dehydrated when we stop with the BM??
