My baby boy is 3 months and 24 days old.. I basically stay in Kolkata and the temperature is 42 degrees. So my baby is not peeing too much and his toilet color is yellow.. He is completely formula fed baby. Sometimes he have breast milk which does not satisfy his demand.. Should i give him water as he is suffering from dehydration??

Instead of water you can breastfed baby more often. Breastmilk changes its composition according to hydration status of baby… till 6 months water not advised for babies… Breastmilk is best
