Answer

Babies under 12 months old do not need additional water as they get enough hydration from breast milk or formula. However, once babies start eating solid foods, they may begin to feel thirsty and can gradually start drinking small amounts of water from a sippy cup or straw cup.

At 11 months and 20 days old, your daughter does not need to consume that much water. 300 ml of milk is appropriate, but 500 ml of water is excessive. Too much water can fill up your daughter's stomach and decrease her appetite for the milk and solid foods that she needs to grow and develop properly.

It is important to offer water with solid foods and allow your daughter to drink as much as she wants, but try not to force her to drink excessive amounts of water. You can offer small amounts of water (2-3 ounces) at meal times or throughout the day to keep her hydrated and supplement her milk feedings.

It's always a good idea to follow the advice of your daughter's pediatrician when it comes to her diet and nutrition, so if you have any concerns or questions, it's best to discuss them with your pediatrician.
