MIL keep asking to give baby water

Just want to rant. Annoyed at how MIL keep asking me to give my baby water. Very damn annoying altho i already told her SO MANY TIMES baby below 6 months cannot drink water, only milk. Whatsmore, my baby is only 2 months. When baby is sick or hiccups she keep asking to give baby water. Which i obviously have to keep repeating myself cannot. Old people forever with their olden days or old days. Partly why i don’t trust her taking care of my baby alone, who knows what she might do to baby behind my back.

Maybe next time ask her would she feed your son alcohol? Say water is as bad as alcohol and she prolly would understand. say babies under 6 months organs cannot process PURE water, cuz it will dilute baby blood. My MIL also dun understand because milk has water in it. Even formula its bad to dilute more water than necessary.. I told her someone in US died after drinking 12 bottles of water - even drinking too much water for adults is deadly. i tell her babies cannot drink water because their organs not good cannot process PURE water and a little bit will be like that adult drink 12 bottles, very bad, then she understand.
