hey..poonam relax u can give water with baby spoon...but in very less quantity. because it is very hot now a days...normally it is suggested not to give water befor 6 month because their is no nutrition value and baby full tummy with water itself so baby drinks less bm this result in weekness and less weight..also excess water may damage baby kidney because still in this age kidney is not completely ready...hope you got the point to say no for water under the age of 6 month.

No water for babies below 6 months.. your breast milk and formula milk are water based

hi poonam, give only breastfeed ti 6 months.. water has no nutrition and so will reduce nutrition intake of baby by making her feel full...
