A. Are you talking about your 4 months old? if yes then no, it isn't a good idea to give anything other than breast milk and formula milk at this age. even if the baby is above six months, then also giving ORS regularly isn't a good choice

A. Yes dear you can give your baby ors once your baby completes six months Till six months you need to only breastfeed your baby well Exclusive breastfeed is recommended upto six months
