Hi, I had the same problem with my daughter so I made sure I drank water around her all the time. I would make an "ahhh" sound at the end of some mouthfuls to show how refreshed I felt. Now at the age of 18months she drinks plenty of water and often let's out a satisfied ahhh sound which is really cute. We also used praise and descriptive words to help demonstrate to her how good water is. I also did some experimentation with sippy cups when she was about 1 and now drinks from all different types of cups.
I hope something we tried helps you. X

A bit of food colouring in the water worked for my daughter when she was little.
My daughter never drank water but made up for it with breastmilk, if your breastfeeding just give your baby some extra feeds if its hot etc.
