A. start water n complementary food only after 6 month. 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. Its better to wait till 6 months by that time baby's bowel will be mature enough to accept semi solid foods

A. Hello Siri actually it is not right to give it to the child before the age of six months as in the in the beginning of seventh month only you can start with all these things not before that even water can be given at that age only so please start with things at the right time why are you in a hurry
