@drhamidch980: For the first six months, babies should only consume breast milk or formula. ntroducing substances like water, honey, cow’s milk, or added sugar and salt can be harmful. Infact one should avoid salt, sugar, cow milk and honey for one year. Babies receive all necessary hydration from breast milk or formula. Extra water can dilute essential nutrients and overburden their kidneys, leading to water intoxication. It’s incorrect to think water is safe just because formula contains water, the water in formula is balanced with vital nutrients. Honey can carry Clostridium botulinum spores, which can cause severe illness in infants. Gripe water contains potentially harmful substances and allergens. Its effectiveness is not scientifically proven. Babies’ kidneys can’t handle excess salt, and sugar can lead to obesity and dental issues. Babies’ digestive systems aren’t mature enough to handle cow’s milk, which can lead to gastrointestinal discomfort and allergies. #momtip #momtipsandtricks #newborn #newbornbaby #firsttimemom #parenting #parentingtips #parentinghacks #momhacks #explore #explorepage #trendingreels #reels #instadaily
