Question

What drink can I give my 14 day old daughter other than baby formula?

Answer

All the nutrients your daughter needs at this age should be supplied by either breastmilk or infant formula. No other drink or food should be given. However, in hot weather, babies who are fed on infant formula may need extra hydration. In these cases, you should offer cooled boiled water in a sterilised bottle, to prevent dehydration.
