A. Put the water in a cup rather than a bottle. Give fluids in food by making foods as runny as possible Offer your baby water between meals when she’s not hungry and keen for food. Keep trying. at this age babies need 450 ml of milk per day.. Replace plain milk with various dishes such as milkshakes and smoothies. Use of interesting straws or sipper cups.

A. Hello dear parent, it is ab fine if your baby does not drink much water or milk. You can still skip milk. But must give him water 1 or 2 sips ever hour. That will keep him well hydrated. You can give milk after a gap of 2 to 3 days. Then baby might drink milk properly
