Is water necessary for newborns till 6 months old?

facing conflicting advices about the giving small amounts of water to babies. some saying that water is needed so that the mouth will not be dry etc. not sure if google advice is accurate that water will harm babies so consulted PD and she mentioned that milk is sufficient. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Breastmilk is sufficient. Water is needed only after 6months and when baby start solid they must drink water. Newborn doesn’t need water.
