A. Hi, No dear. I would suggest to continue breastfeeding till 6 month exclusively and don't forget to burp after every feed. Mother's milk contains more than 80 % water in it. Start giving semi solid and solid food, watery food or water once baby completes 6 month. You can start with few spoons of water .
