Yes, this is fine provided the softened water has a sodium concentration below the maximum 200 mg/l for sodium as specified in the Drinking Water Regulations. This level was adopted to ensure that the total sodium of the baby feed plus the water does not exceed 350 mg/l which is considered a safe level for babies.
