Shabnam SheikhMom of 2 children3 years agoA. hii,
offer water or diluted juice in a cup at mealtimes. However, avoid giving fizzy drinks or drinks with artificial sweeteners. As a new mother, you may be confused about your baby’s water needs. Since they are too little to express thirst, you may be worried that your baby isn’t hydrated properly or if you should supplement breast milk with water. Babies generally communicate through various signals or sounds and tend to point to the water cup or use sign language to say they want water. During feeds, if they refuse to eat or swallow food bolus, it indicates they need water. When water is offered, babies drink as much required. If the water cup is taken away, they might cry or bend forwards to reach the cup, which indicates they need more water.
