To be very Frank being a first time mommy I was scared but determined to do what is best for my infant as it is the first step of her getting proper nutrition and a highly recommended nutrition. But the start was rough as the milk produced was not enough so I had to take certain supplements and did whatever my gynaec told me and ultimately it was enough for my baby. But I am really to all the doctors and my doctor who were the part of my journey and made it easy for me and my kiddo so that she gets her proper nourishment through mother's milk.

i was unable to feed my baby when she born due to flat nipples. i was so frustrated and become very sad when it happened. she loss her weight upto halk kg due to improper lactation. i tried somany things to make my nipple come out. used syringes for pull it out. but that was not a proper solution. but i was trying to feed her by breast feeding. she tried so hard. sucked so hard. it took almost 1 month to solve this problem. when my nipple come out my baby can suck properly and she started grain weight.
