My 7 month old daughter barely eats solids but drinks 60ml of water with each meal. Is she drinking too much water?

About 230g of water per day is enough for babies between 6 months to 12 months old. If you are concerned about the nutrient intake, you can give her fresh fruit juices or homemade fruit smoothies. http://edition.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/expert.q.a/07/20/babies.water.drink.shu/index.html?iref=24hours

Seems like it's too much depending on how many meals you're giving her. For 7 months old baby, water intake should not exceed 2-3oz (60-90ml). I'm only giving like 30ml cos she's breastfed. http://wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com/babyneedwater.htm

Your baby is 7 months old only.It is okay to give her sips of water when she is thirsty but no more than 2 ounces per 24 hr
