Did we have vs Did we had

"Did we have" is the proper phrasing. In English, the auxiliary verb "did" is followed by the base form of the main verb, which is "have" in this case. "Did we had" is incorrect because the past tense of "have" is "had," but when using the auxiliary verb "did," the main verb remains in its base form.
