A. give few sips after and in between meals according to baby intake breastmilk and food also provide water to baby so baby will not have much water a better way to know if child is getting enough fluids is to check urine. if baby passing urine more than 7 times in a day, urine is light-coloured or colourless then getting enough hydration.
