A. dear Mum, no, not at all. you should not give even a small drop of honey to your baby at the age of 3 months. honey can be given only after 1 year.

A. Babies younger than 1 year old should not be given honey. That's because a type of bacteria (called Clostridium) that causes infant botulism can be found in honey. Infant botulism can cause muscle weakness, with signs like poor sucking, a weak cry, constipation, and decreased muscle tone (floppiness).
