A. nope, avoid till 6 lonths, No other foods or fluids – including water – are not necessary till 6 months.  Exclusive breast feed your baby two hourly and on demand . Breast milk is the recommended source of nutrition for infants, especially during the first six months of life.

A. Hello dear parent! Ideally semi solids and water should be given only after 6 months completion. Till then the baby should be either exclusively breastfed or formula fed only. Both breastmilk and formula milk will suffice the hydration and nutrition requirements of your baby. Continue breastfeeding.
