Can we give water to a new born baby

2023-03-29 13:54:09
As per our pediatrician, we are giving a few drops of water for our newborn baby & we also mix warm water with medicine (neopeptin, astymin c & D3 must)  5 drops of medicine & 5 drops of water to give to our new born. We hear from so many of our friends & family that water should not be given for newborns. For now, we are continuing as per our pediatrician instruction. Can we continue to do so or not ?
