"Nursery Water" (Water with Flouride)

I realized that sometimes when I buy "distilled" water to mix the formula with, i sometimes buy "Nursery Water" which is distilled water with fluoride added. Should I be using water with Fluoride or just plain water??? IS it bad if i used water with fluoride? Sometimes that's all i see. DD is 4 months... TIA!

Just use plain water. We used a brita pitcher for DS's water...

You should use plain water.

Because of the risk for dental fluorosis, and the lack of demonstrable benefit from ingesting fluoride before teeth erupt, the American Dental Association - and a growing number of dental researchers - recommend that children under 12 months of age should not consume fluoridated water while babies under 6 months of age should not receive any fluoride drops or pills.

Don't worry if you did...many of us grew up with fluoride in our water.

But I would not do it from this point on.
