Name: nidhi



hi everyone,
i recently started solids for my baby few weeks back, and i asked my doctor for giving water to my baby and she said its not essential since water has nothing nutritious for young babies, In india everybody says u shud give water. Any suggestions?

Hi Nidhi,

I have a 5 month old boy an di started giving him water at 3.5 months. I live in dubai and my ped told me that if he has breast milk then u can skip water till 5 months but if hes on formula then yes water is required ( justa few sips few times a day) because formula can dry up the babys mouth.

My son has been on formula since his third month and hence he has water. Now at 5 months i fill one bottle with water and give it to him 2 or 3 times in a day (total of maybe 30ml).

So regardless of which milk your son has, i think it would b ok to give water.. i personally think water is essential.

Hope i helped.
