try carrot water....i boil the carrot slices and use the water for my baby to drink. He loves it because it is slightly sweet. Before we tried to get him to drink baby barley tea (apparently good for digestion) but he hates it coz of the slightly bitter taste.

I was told by my dr not to give my son water. He is 2 months old and the dr says they shouldn't have water until they are about 6 months. Milk is 80% water and should be enough. If you still want to give your baby water, try warming it a little bit

I do not know if this will work but try warm water or if you breastfeed or bottle feed water it really down just for flavor. Or call the DR. or pharamacy.
