If the baby calorie intake is adequate (as evident by consistent weight gain and good activity), you can give as much of water as much baby wants. Yes ,Iron preparation do cause constipation but not necessarily in every child.

Water would be sufficient given during food intake.. Instead of giving too much of plain water u can feed your baby with veg soups and juices which are more nutritious.
