Is water necessary for newborns till 6 months old?

facing conflicting advices about the giving small amounts of water to babies. some saying that water is needed so that the mouth will not be dry etc. not sure if google advice is accurate that water will harm babies so consulted PD and she mentioned that milk is sufficient. 🤷🏻‍♀️

it really on your comfort level. my pd is one did not mention no water to me. even said that small amount it's ok. this is to rinse the mouth and incase phlegm. I bf my baby since nb till now almost 22 months. I have water all the water. it really depend on individual comfort level.
