ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist1 Year agoA. no dear it is not required and also not recommended
nothing should be given to the child other than breast milk till six months are complete not even water
introduction of formula and bottle can cause infections due to difficult cleaning Due to easy availability of milk a baby gets habituated to bottle-feeding & subsequently refuses to feed at the breast
