Q. #AskTheExpert My baby is 22 days old. I am breastfeeding him. But he has problem with latching milk. He finds it difficult to latch sometimes. Rarely he drinks around 5 times in a day. I think it's not sufficient to my baby. He cries every time when I breast feed him. At that time I give formula milk. He drinks that and he will sleep peacefully. What shall I do?
