A. frequent time throughout the day, If your breast feeding your baby, continue to breastfeed at regular intervals and there is no need to give anything else apart from mother milk or formula milk to baby till he complete 6months of age as it is complete food that takes care of hydration as well as nutrition. After 6 month you can gradually start weaning with homemade easy to digest food items like rice porridge ragi porridge mashed fruits apple Puree, mashed banana chiku etc. But whatever you are introducing should be introduced gradually with a small amount

A. hi dear Until they are 6 months old, there is no need for your baby to drink anything apart from breast milk or formula. Water is generally introduced to babies once they are past the newborn stage and slowly transitioning to foods besides breast milk. Babies usually start with solid food between 5 and 8 months of age.
