Feeding barley water to baby?

I have a 3 month old baby who will be going for his vaccination soon. My mum keeps asking me to feed him barley water before and after his jab to prevent a fever. I am not keen to feed my baby anything other than milk in his first 6 months though. Any thoughts? Did any of you feed barley water to your baby at 3 months? Or you’d rather wait too.

i didn't! before my baby was born, i told my husband to read up alot so i don't have to tell off ppl when they insisted. true incident, his mother aka my mil insisted to feed my 12days baby water bc 'weather hot' me as a dil just said 'its ok she drink enough milk and got fan can alr' and she still insisted. thankgod my husband stepped in and told his mum firmly respectfully 'cannot la bc can cause complication. that time i read blablabla' hahaha so to me, communication w partner and alot read up to back up your No is important
