Is anyone giving a little cooled boiled water in this hot weather ? My lo - 6 weeks may be a little constipated and unsure if I should give her some between feeds ?

Think the advice is to offer a little cooled boiled water in hot weather, just to avoid dehydration. You've on the right track following your instincts Smile.
