A. your baby is three month old. Don't give any water at this young age...because -Water has no calories but fills your baby nevertheless. This will make him less interested in drinking milk. It could also result in weight loss and increased bilirubin levels. Giving water at early age gets water intoxication.

A. hello water should not be given to baby till the baby complete 6 months and the bm or the infant formula milk will itself contain the required water content and additional water will absorb the nutrition and exclusively breastfeed the baby or give infant formula milk stage 1 using bpa free bottle like Babyhug
