In general, your baby shouldn't drink water until he's about 6 months old. Until then, he gets all the hydration he needs from breast milk or formula, even in hot weather. Once your baby is 6 months old, it's okay to give him sips of water when he's thirsty.

Milk especially breastfeed babies don’t need water as breastmilk/milk is sufficient for those babies below 6 months. Water only be given after they have started solid from 6 months onwards

Can, but it’s not needed. Plus it might make the baby feel full and not want to drink milk. what’s the reason why you need to feed plain water to a baby below 6months?

Hi, I would suggest not but small amounts of water like 1 ml can be used for mouth washing etc
