A. Dear mum, water should be introduced to babies only after completion of 6 months. Until then you should exclusively breastfeed. Breast milk contains about 90 percent water and fulfils the hydration needs of baby.

A. good evening you are supposed to give only mother's milk up to the age of 6 months after that you can introduce semi solid food as well as water to the child I would not recommend you to give before that
