Mom of a 4 yr old girl3 years ago

Q.

After feeding baby from the bottle (pumped breastmilk) is it possible to have them feed directly from breast? How can one achieve this? I'm mother of a 12 week old and she refuses breast and only looks for bottle.

A. Hi dear mom See if u have inverted or smell nipples then this can be the reason for not latching. U can try using nipple shield to feed ur baby. Also try different feeding positions in which baby is comfortable sucking. U can also feed in sleeping position.
