Mum Issues Warning After Baby Nearly Dies From Drinking Bath Water

A mum who was forced to rush her 11-month-old daughter to emergency after she drank too much bath water has issued a warning to other parents.
US mum Katie Gorter said her baby Emily became sick after ingesting a significant amount of bath water, detailing the scary experience of near water intoxication on Facebook.

“Currently dealing with my 11-month-old having water intoxication! I only ever offer 2oz (60mL) a day and usually she doesn’t finish it,” the Oregon woman wrote.
