okay thank youapollo:662442 said:Fever: 37.5 (armpit thermometer) 37.8 (ear thermometer)
babies usually have higher temperature so it is quite common for them to have temp of 36.9 to 37.3..
if yr baby is fully on BM then no water but if on half BM & half formula, better to give water cuz formula is heaty and easily to get sick. I gave my son slip of water when he was 5-6mth old cuz he was having formula in infant care & BM during the night so they will feed water to my son in infant care. Now i gave him about 210ml per day is he can finish cuz he is having running nose and fever few days ago.errr babies cannot / not advisable to drink water O_O

Leaving her w my grandma in the day n scared she secretly feed my.girl waterapollo:664312 said:It is not advisable to feed babies water. My son was on partial bf and was mainly on FM but we didnt give a single sip of water until he was 5.5mth old when he started semi solid. Pd told us even fully on FM also dont feed extra water cos FM is 95% water alrdy. Imagine babies have very small kidneys and alrdy drink so much milk a day, if still let them drink like additional 100ml of water a day, is consider ALOT for them and their kidneys have to work more.. However, a sip after milk is still okay, but not 2-30ml each time, cos if u accummulate, is alot.. =)
