Fluoride in water

My LO hates his vitamins. His pedi said I can give him baby water with flouride. Is anyone else doing this as a alternative? And how much water would he need per day since he is bf and eating little solids. I don't want him to have cavities.

 Btw he is 9 months.

Our tap water has fluoride, I let DD drink however much she wants, it's normally only 1 sippy (10oz) a day.  I don't understand how fluoride water is supposed to compensate for him not having vitamins though, there's no vitamins in water & no fluoride in most vitamins.

Are you able to put them in formula or milk? I use the Enfamil liquid vitamins and the bottle says you can add it to that.

 I did that for awhile. I added it to his solids but he ended up refusing to eat for weeks.
