Accepted Answer

you have to give only breastfeeding /milk  to the child till completion of 6 months of age and before 6 months of age if you are giving any type of outside food or complementary feeding it can cause digestion problem in the child.
no need to give water also because breast milk contains 80% of water and water xalso is given after six months of age only.
it is advisable to continue the the multi vitamin and supplement medicines given by your doctor
