Water - Rayyan Vs Masafi Vs Bambino

Currently using Bambino brand water to prepare formula for 6 month old baby. Looking to start the baby on solid food and considering switching to either Rayyan or Masafi branded water for food preparation and formula. Know that Bambino brand is distilled but don't know if the source is an aquafer or is desalinated whereas both the other brands are supposed to be from aquafers. Could someone who knows about water please advise on what's best please? Thank you.

I think it is a bit OTT. I think any bottled water is fine for washing . Otherwise , you can use ta water and boil it first , then allow it to cool down.

As for food .. Any bottled water is fine

Good luck

I find that Bambino is a bit to ' fizzy ' and makes me fart but Rayyan is fragrant with a hint of sprngtime, Masafi offers an amusing tingly taste of glacial peaks combined with the cheekiness of a cess pool.

not sure that will go down well with the mrs

but seriously though, any advice from someone who knows about water, heath and nutrition would be really appreciated.

this is what I don't know.

friends have suggested that bottled water be used to wash the baby at least for the first year. So we are getting gallons and gallons for this(not Bambino though as firstly they dont do the big gallons plus could not afford it anyway) which is generally Al Manhal brand (this is what the corner shop has and while nestle do deliver to where I am they only do once a week and this means I need space for about 15gallons at home which I dont have). Formula is currently being prepared with Bambino brand water.

Water for the kiddie is costing me a small fortune and though this is not specifically a finance/affordability related issue am trying to figure out if what I am doing is something that is required and has any benefit or if this really is OTT.

Does it really make any difference ? Sanitising too much can lead to lower immune levels and illness in later life
