Biggest challenge was to avoid breast engorgement,when your little one have very less hunger but milk supply was huge..so I removed excess amount of milk in bottle so that I can feed my baby and also I save myself from tremendous pain due to breast engorgement.

Breastfeeding is a beautiful journey,both for mom and baby.In initial days it becomes difficult for every baby to latch,also for new mom's its a new experience.But mother's shouldn't lose patience and trust in their child.Mine was the same case,my baby was unable to latch first two days,my husband helped me to hold him near me as I was too scared and didn't know anything,on the third day he himself latched and that was the best feeling for me.I was extremely happy and our journey was smooth.I fed my baby for 2yrs.

it's little bit difficult at that time because you have to face so many problems regarding breast feeding but it's all forgettable when you feed your child that was the most precious time for a mother too. 😊😊😊

My baby was unable to suck the milk as he born, he was unable to reach, i used breast pump and pump the milk and give him with the help of it in a bottle or with the spoon. My massage aunty told me that put the pillow under him and it will help the baby to reach the breast easily and then he will able to suck it. With the similar method I was able to breastfeed my baby.

My baby was unable to suck milk from 1 breast. Its is the reason my breast were becoming very different in sizes.so I order a breast pump and feed my baby by pumping milk.

how much quantity food should give for baby

Rabiya Khanum Mom of a 7 yr old girl 4 years ago

Breast engorgement is when your breasts get too full of milk. They may feel hard, tight and painful.Engorgement can happen in the early days when you and your baby are still getting used to breastfeeding. It can take a few days for your milk supply to match your baby's needs.Engorgement can also happen when your baby is older and not feeding so frequently, perhaps when they start having solid foods.
