Hello… Honey should not be given as prelacteal feed … Better observe baby for warning signs like vomiting, abdomen distension, or any abnormal behaviour… nothing much to worry if these signs r absent as of now…
Next Steps
Mothers milk alone is sufficient for all nutritional needs til 6 months…
Health Tips
Water, honey, sugar syrup never to be given atleast till 6months of age… if any danger signs r seen please consult doctor in person…
