it is one of the best feeling in the world. Holding your baby and feeding that feeling cnt be explained. at the same time as a new mom it was a panic situation on how to hold the baby and Feed in such a manner that the little one don't have to struggle for latching. it's true saying that practice makes a man perfect. i kept trying all possible ways to help my baby to latch and finally I succeed with this

Suffered on the initial days since I did not have enough breast milk and my baby's weight reduced. Then I started having Lactonic Granules powder twice a day which helped increase breast milk and my baby had only breast milk for 6 months. Used to have this powder till she turned 1 year😊

It was the world's biggest blessing. The best way to bond with your child. But like always said every coin has two sides, I too had my share of challenges:
1. Underweight baby: to make sure that my child was well fed, would breastfeed him for short and regular time interval.
2. Baby would latch and Sleep: would make sure I feed him first and change his diaper (this would wake my child up), feed him again.
3. Had lumps: would pump out the extra milk every now and then, then either feed him with the same or would donate to the Milk bank.
4. Inverted nipples: had this problem, so had to use nipple cap initially but stopped using the same after 4-5 months.
5. Colic during breastfeeding: was adviced to use Colicaid if required. plz note: one must consult the pediatrician before inducing child with any medication.

breast feeding is an awesome experience... there were challenges in breast feeding as a working women it was touff was giving breast feeding continuosly .. as the child grown breast feeding is not sufficient... but luckily managed by pumping the milk from breast and making it available for kid when required..
