Im really worried as I have just read about water intoxication, I gave my 4 week old about an oz and a half of water (sterile water obviously) because his soft spot was sunken and I was worried as I hadn't been drinking many fluid the last few days and thought maybe my breastmilk wasn't hydrating him enough. Have other parents given there babies this much before? He seems fine at the moment, but I don't know how long it would take if something bad were to happen to actually happen. I feel so stupid now, I just thought aslong as it's sterile that it's okay? I'm so scared I gave him too much
