A member asked:

My babies refusing the water am worry from the dehydration (10 months ) they took just 500 cc milk daily what can i do?

Confusing question: Your question is not clear. As long as your babies are making a pee diaper every 6 hours they should not have a problem with dehydration.Many infants find water distasteful and refuse it. Alternate fluid sources like apple sauce (95% water) or vegetables (60%) can interest an infant and provide fluid value.
