Baby not drinking water
My baby will turn 6 months on sep20.
As per pediatrician suggesting i have started baby weaning from sep8
Baby weight on sep8: 6.16kg
Doctor suggested 'Nestum' in the morning and fruit puree in the evening.
But my baby is not drinking water after eating, so i am just giving her only fruit puree.
She is eating one medium size steamed Apple puree/ bannana.
Problem: She is completely loving to have fruit puree, But not drinking water after that. She is spitting the water out.
Is this normal?
Can I introduce other solids though she is not drinking water.
Is their any way to make her drink water?

Try giving water in between rather than immediately after giving puree.
U can also try via sippers but use proper, sterilisation techniques while using it.
Introduce other foods also on weekly basis.
