A. first feed her more dinner.See when baby has any new complain then better avoid any self medication. Show to a doctor for right and timely diagnosis and treatment. Thays a safe procedure.You can always try to add health and tasty substitute like whole grain cookies, cakes and. Home made papad etc.patience is very important too.

A. hello there ma'am please do not worry about it too much and please don't stop it all of a sudden and reduce the frequency and apply neem oil and giloy juice on nipples whenever you don't want to give breastfeeding. take care
