Why Sacrifice Fashion for Function when it comes to Baby Diaper Bags?
We have all seen them . . . those overly-baby diaper bags with pink bunnies or blue cars on them that just scream, "I carry dirty diapers in this bag." Fortunately today's diaper bags are much more hip for both mom and dad. They not only have a compartment for every baby item you might want to have handy, but also come in a variety of styles and fabrics to suit your adult needs and style preferences.

Many retailers are starting to realize that parents would much rather carry their essential baby items in a ergonomic backpack, stylish hobo bag, dual purpose stroller bags or a hip messenger bag in more contemporary fabrics. No one has to know its a diaper bag anymore!

When Can My Baby Start Drinking Water?
The answer to this question is "yes". The answer is also
"no"! The full answer is that, like all human beings, babies
do need to take in water in order to survive. |

But they don't actually need to drink water—in fact,
pediatricians advise against giving your baby plain or
distilled water until he or she is six months old. Babies
get their water needs met by drinking breastmilk or formula,
both of which are mostly water.
The reason your doctor will tell you not to feed your baby
plain water is that it's easy to fill up an infant's
stomach; a few little ounces will do the job. Babies should
be filling up on nourishment—getting the nutrients they need
from each feeding. Once your baby has been teething, he or
she will need fluoride to support the

new teeth, so giving drinking water is a good way to meet
that need. But until then, let your baby get water in his or
her usual feedings of mother's milk or formula.
If your baby is running a temperature, your pediatrician
may advise you to give him or her more liquids. Usually,
your doctor will suggest a liquid like Pedialyte, which
contains nutrients to restore the balance of your child's
electrolytes. Again, don't give your infant water instead of
other liquids unless the doctor advises it.
