Hello! Our baby was born two months ago. It is wonderful. Very calm, smiling and meek, he does not intrude with himself. The first month was difficult / for whom it is not /, but after getting up for a month, a month and a half he started to calm down, to adapt well, he already sleeps 7-8 hours a night and I sleep well, I only wait for him during the day. to wake up to play or during this time train at home. Good luck with such a baby, although I think genes are important, and good care and that the baby feels our love and protection - to feel at ease. I'm a little worried, though, because the baby doesn't want to drink water. He is completely breastfed and does not want to hear about a bottle or a pacifier. I'm not in a hurry yet, but in time he will have to learn to drink, but when it comes time to feed, how will he drink juices, refusing to swallow the bottle? Please give me some advice, I'll go buy a spoon to try and so on, but I don't know if this will solve the problem.

Get fluids from breast milk, don't worry, and how old are you (just curiosity). In general, even when breastfeeding do not recommend water, but everyone decides, try it with a spoon.
Happy baby. The baby should not drink water or take anything else once you have breastfed and are breastfeeding. Unless your doctor tells you otherwise. Give him breast milk on request. It is sometimes nutritious and sometimes more liquid. The child sometimes wants it to eat and sometimes to drink. If you can only breastfeed for 5-6 months, you will have a healthy baby. When you start feeding, you also do not need to drink water if you are breastfeeding. My son didn't want water for a year. All breast milk. In general, water soaked like humans only after a year and a half. It is very important not to try juices. You will confuse his intestines, teeth, many things.
To be completely calm about your child, always consult a doctor.
If breastfed on request there is no need for water. He will drink when he starts with solid food.
