A. check out for proper position so that nipples are directly straight into the mouth as by if nipples go through the side of the mouth maybe is not able to feed properly and if there is no proper latching yes the breast milk supply also reduces. try to sit in a comfortable position and hold the baby properly don't get stressed or sad slowly you both will get use to it ,,but give breastfeeding as it is the best source of Nutrition to the baby
