Hello,

Its normal for a baby to have his milk after every 2 hours and it is necessary to prevent any hypoglycemia. There is no need to give any kind of water or tea till 6 months of age. You should exclusively give you baby milk preferably mothers breast milk.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sameen Bin Naeem, General & Family Physician
