no. . .
after 6 months
Mother's milk is complete food for the baby . The initial portion is watery that takes care of hydration and the later portion that is creamy and rich in facts will provide then necessary nutrition. So there is no need to give even water . Try to exclusively breastfeed the baby for first 6 months after birth.

Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 1 m old girl3 years agoA. hi
no
please don't give
no need of it
because if a child is taking breastfeeding ,he or she get all essential nutrients and water too from this.
so no need of extra water.
after completion of 6 months age, you can start giving it .
but till that please stick to breastfeeding only
