A. You can wait and let baby complete six months and feed babyon regular intervals and keep the babyin well ventilated room to avoid excessive heat exposure take care and stay safe

A. Hi Mom No, water is not to given before 6 months. Don't worry about the summer as breastmilk is 70% water itself. Baby is peeing less because of summer as baby is sweating also. (Just like baby was peeing more in winter, remember?) You are doing a good job Mom and your baby is perfectly alright.

RashmiMom of a 11 yr 2 m old girl4 years ago

A. Hello ma’am The breast feed has enough water into it already you do not need to give any extra water to your child. I do agree that the weather is really hot and you know maybe you may feel the need of giving water to the child sometimes but trust me it is absolutely not required
