A. Breastfeeding is always a very important factor for the baby and mother and many times there are some problem faced by mother because of either wrong position while feeding lack of proper diet stress related factors. A proper is counselling is required which can be done by a lactational counsellor along with a proper diet with plenty of liquids some supplements may be helpful like shathravari . Also try to avoid giving top milk in initial stage specially with bottle feeding which may be the culprit for lactational failure most of the time .

Q. Hi mam My baby is 4months old. Her birth weight was 3kg and now she is 5.3kg and pees for 20-25 times in a day. She nurses every 1.5-2hrs and feeds continously until I unlatch her. Sometimes she even cries if I unlatch. Sleeps while feeding and rarely she is awake during feeding and when she is awake she fusses and comes on and off the breast and cries. I don't understand when to unlatch her. Is she getting enough or not. Is it normal to never unlatch.
