POOJA GOSWAMIMom of 2 children4 years ago

A. As main meal for the baby at 6 months is either breastmilk or formula milk and foods are also in pureedor liquid form, there is no need to give too much water. If required, you can give 100 to 140 ml water throughout the day apart from semi solid food and milk.
